unknown database in jdbc

Question

I am using JDBC and new to it. but I keep getting this runtime exception:

   connecting to psysical database...
   com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErr         


        

Answer 1

I had the same issue and found that the cause of it was: The name of the database here is CASE SENSITIVE! So, I was trying to connect using a database name like "test2", but the database name actually was "Test2".
