NO)

how to run ant for generating and creating database from the script.

First of all you need to try to connect with mysql via cmd line, for example int this way mysql -u root -p root to know that you are able to do it. Secondly you can do it from ant build using this code:

<project name="mysql.test" default="mysqltest">

    <target name="mysqltest">
        <exec executable="cmd.exe">
            <arg value="mysql" />
            <arg value="-u root" />
            <arg value="-p root" />
        </exec>
    </target>

</project>

You probably try to do it not via cmd and thats why you can't connect.
