Im trying to connect to MySql workbench using hibernate

Question

Here is my configuration file:

<hibernate-configuration>
    <session-factory>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</property>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.password">12345</property>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test</property>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.username">root</property>
        <property name="hibernate.format_sql">true</property>
        <property name="hibernate.show_sql">true</property>
        <property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect</property>
        <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">create</property>
        <mapping class= "com.egen.UserDetails" />
    </session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

The error I'm getting is:

Answer 1

The problem lies in the privileges of the user root . You will have to set grant and configure some settings in the command prompt for your MySQL. Try the following links.

1.) MySQL Access denied errors

2.) Grant Privileges for local user root

This is basically a privilege issue. Resolve that and it'll get fixed.

Hope it helps. :)

Answer 2

You should check whether the password you have provided for root is correct. Or may be that the user authentication root doesn't have access to the database.
