Description coderogue 2011-11-03 14:18:55 UTC

tried to connect to mysql database with this: mysql-connector-java-5.1.18-bin.jar

test connection is successful. However, the database selection dropdown is disabled and no database shown.

When I proceed, it reads the mysql tables instead.

Do you mean "Select schema:" dropdown?

I think that there are no schemas in MySQL,
see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/create-database.html

You should probably set the database name in (previous) wizard page "Customize Connection", in field "Database:".

Does it work for you?

Closing, I thing that the current behavior is correct.
Please reopen if you can provide more details of your use case. Thanks.
