Error when connecting to MYSQL database

Hi guys,

 

I have a SAP BI Platform system, version SAP BI BO 4.0 SP6. In IDT, when I try to connect to a MySQL 5.1 database running on Windows (Oracle -> MYSQL 5 -> JDBC Drivers), I got the error:

 

Test failed

com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

 

I downloaded the jar file mysql-connector-java-5.1.29-bin.jar and copied it on the local machine under C:\Program Files\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\dataAccess\connectionServer\jdbc\drivers\mysql (created the folder mysql).


Now I try to connect again, the above error is gone but now I get the foll. error:


Communications link failure

 

The last packet sent successfully to the server was 0 milliseconds ago. The driver has not received any packets from the server.


Anybody coming across this error? Any idea how to resolve this?


regards.
