[opencms-dev] Installation encoding error

[grenoml]

Gokul,
  Thanks for the reply.  Yes, I had an error in my password.  But now
password is correct and it is not creating any database.  It gives a
new error:
------------------
Could no connect to database via: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/
java.sql.SQLException: Cannot connect to MySQL server on
localhost:3306. Is there a MySQL server running on the machine/port you
are trying to connect to? (java.lang.NumberFormatException)

-------------------------------------------
java.lang.NullPointerException

-------------------------------------------
------------------

  I verified that mysql is running and I can connect to it using
'mysql' in xterm window.  What is the java.lang.NumberFormatException?


thx,
Gerry Reno
