Unable to connect to Google cloud SQL via Java eclipse

Question

I'm having trouble to connect to my database from eclipse using my instance a google cloud sql database. I successed to access to the database via mysql command line but no in eclise.

My code:

String instanceConnectionName = "****";
String databaseName = "****";
String username = "***";
String password = "***";

 String jdbcUrl = String.format(
            "jdbc:mysql://google/%s?cloudSqlInstance=%s&"
        + "socketFactory=com.google.cloud.sql.mysql.SocketFactory",
            databaseName,
            instanceConnectionName);         
 Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(jdbcUrl, username, password);

The Error I get:

jdbc:mysql://google/****?cloudSqlInstance=****e&socketFactory=com.google.cloud.sql.mysql.SocketFactory

Answer 1

You have an error message that says the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS is not set. Please create a .credentials file in a root folder and add your credential details in it.

Please refer to this link https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/application-default-credentials

Answer 2

The Application Default Credentials are not available. They are available if running on Google App Engine, Google Compute Engine, or Google Cloud Shell. Otherwise, the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS must be defined pointing to a file defining the credentials. See https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/application-default-credentials for more information.

You need credentials to access google cloud sql. You can create from here

After creating your credential, create your key file and point it in your bash_profile(read the block quote for more info). then it should work

Alternatively you can use CLOUD SQL PROXY to not work with environment variables, follow the steps in this link, if something is blurry please ask. https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/mysql/connect-admin-proxy

hope this helps.
