(It should have a name of <em>\u2018mysql-connector-java-x.x.x.jar\u2019<\/em>, where <em>\u2018x.x.x\u2019<\/em> stands for the version of connector.)<\/p>\n<p>First, it is necessary to add this connector to the folders where current JDK and JRE are located. This is vitally important in order to be able to use it when writing a Java program.<\/p>\n<p>Default paths to locate the connector are:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1-4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11164 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1-4.png\" alt=\"how to connect mysql database in netbeans\" width=\"706\" height=\"85\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1-4.png 706w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1-4-300x36.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 100vw, 706px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Also, it is necessary to add the location of the connector to CLASSPATH and add some other system variables. (If this is not done, an error may occur.)<\/p>\n<p>Go to Computer -&gt; Properties -&gt; Advanced system settings -&gt; Environment variables. Click \u2018New\u2019, and add the following variables with the parameters:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/2-4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11166 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/2-4.png\" alt=\"how to connect mysql database in netbeans example\" width=\"713\" height=\"157\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/2-4.png 713w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/2-4-300x66.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 713px) 100vw, 713px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Once this is done it is possible to configure MySQL and create programs using a MySQL connection.<\/p>\n<p>MySQL configuration includes setting up a username and password. The default name is \u2018root\u2019 and the password is empty (for this example I have set the password to be \u2018admin\u2019).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-5.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11168 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-5.png\" alt=\"how to connect mysql database in netbeans sample\" width=\"793\" height=\"497\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-5.png 793w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-5-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-5-768x481.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 793px) 100vw, 793px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Default Connection settings<\/em><\/p>\n<p>When connection is activated, it is possible to create a database in it. For this project, the database \u2018feedback\u2019 has been created, along with the table \u2018project\u2019. In the Workbench it is possible to do this using either through the interface or by writing queries like these below:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/4-5.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11170 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/4-5.png\" alt=\"how to connect mysql database in netbeans sample analyzed\" width=\"982\" height=\"232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/4-5.png 982w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/4-5-300x71.png 300w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/4-5-768x181.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 982px) 100vw, 982px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now it is possible to connect to this database and table from NetBeans, operate on it, and make any other actions.<\/p>\n<p>Finally moving to the IDE, go to the Services tab, right click on \u2018Databases\u2019 and select \u2018Register MySQL Server\u2019. I have entered \u2018root\u2019 as the user name for the administrator and \u2018admin\u2019 for the password in the Basic Properties tab. In the Admin Properties tab, the following properties shown in the screenshot are set. Note that the admin tool here is MySQL Workbench, but it can be any other tool (for example, XAMPP).<\/p>\n<p>After this, it is necessary to establish a new connection (Services tab, right click \u2018Databases\u2019 and select \u2018New Connection\u2019). Make sure to use the appropriate connector, as by default an older connection is used (the corresponding screenshot shows the right connector selected).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/6-3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11172 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/6-3.png\" alt=\"mysql netbeans\" width=\"775\" height=\"420\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/6-3.png 775w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/6-3-300x163.png 300w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/6-3-768x416.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Setting up basic properties for MySQL Server<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/7-3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11174 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/7-3.png\" alt=\"mysql netbeans example\" width=\"777\" height=\"418\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/7-3.png 777w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/7-3-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/7-3-768x413.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 777px) 100vw, 777px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Setting up admin properties for MySQL Server<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/8-3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11176 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/8-3.png\" alt=\"mysql netbeans sample completed\" width=\"619\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/8-3.png 619w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/8-3-300x223.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 619px) 100vw, 619px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Establishing connection in NetBeans<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The following default properties did not work for me:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/9-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11178 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/9-2.png\" alt=\"netbeans mysql connection code\" width=\"612\" height=\"455\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/9-2.png 612w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/9-2-300x223.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Connection not established<\/em><\/p>\n<p>But after changing and adding variables, connection was established.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/10-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11180 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/10-1.png\" alt=\"netbeans mysql connection code correct\" width=\"618\" height=\"456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/10-1.png 618w, https:\/\/assignmentshark.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/10-1-300x221.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 618px) 100vw, 618px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Connection established<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So, at this point it is possible to use this connection and operate with it in the program.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>This tutorial was developed by our technical experts who have extensive experience in creating technical analyses, tutorials, and guides.
