Cant connect to my SQL database

Question

So I\'m having an issue connecting to MySQL with Java. Heres my code:

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException         


        

Answer 1

connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost/worlddb?" +"user=root&password=password");

Try this, I have a connection to mysql db with same connection, you just add ? after the name of the db.
