I have I small Java application. At the moment I'm trying to get it to work with mysql. I have VMware Workstation and Ubuntu Server 10.10 running on it. When I'm trying to connect to server (from my PC where VMware is running) to start JDBC connection for mysql driver, it doesn't work. I asked similar question earlier at SO. First and only answer (at the moment) is that firewall or connection type might be the issue, but I don't know how to correctly configure it.
Maybe someone could help with this part?
Also I tried to create a *.jar
file from my application and in link I placed localhost and on server it works fine, so I guess it proves again, that there is some limitation during the connection.
