I'm running MAMP and WSO2 Carbon data service at the same time. What I'm trying to do is adding a new data source by connecting to mysql server. I have added the com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
to lib folder.
Full error which I'm getting when trying to test the connection
Error establishing data source connection: Communications link failure The last packet sent successfully to the server was 0 milliseconds ago. The driver has not received any packets from the server.
This seems to be a problem with mysql server configuration. Please have a look at following threads.
