To configure MySQL driver setting add the MySQL driver jar file with the Add button and specify the connection URL and the Driver classname. What are the driver settings in the MMMySQL Driver?

  I added mysql-connector-java-3.1.10-bin-g.jar wtih the Add button to that Extra Class Path, Driver class name is org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver. I also tried com.mysql.jdbc.Driver as the Driver Class Name, didn't work.
  Does it matter where the mysql-connector-java-3.1.10-bin-g.jar is located? I have it in /Applications/Eclipse/mysql-connector-java-3.1.10.
  Thank you!

  Is the connection url specified?
  Set URL to jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test

  Select the mysql-connector-java-3.1.10-bin.jar file instead of the mysql-connector-java-3.1.10-bin-g.jar file.
  
  Does the OK button get selected for some other database?
  
  thanks,

  could'nt get it to work with the mysql-connector-java-3.1.10-bin.jar either. OK button works for other databases like Oracle OCI or Mimer SQL.
