In this example we will show you how to connect to MySQL database from your JSP code. First, you need to create database and then write jsp code to connect jsp to database.
1. Create a database:
First create a database named usermaster in mysql. Before running the jsp code you need to paste mySqlConnector.jar in lib directory of jdk.
| mysql> create database
usermaster; (This query create database in my sql command prompt) |
2. Connect JSP with mysql:
Here is the jsp code.
ConnectJspToMysql.jsp
