[play-framework][1.2.5] DB configuration URL when user and password is empty

[gokool]

This might be a trivial question. I have a local MySQL database which has no password has been set.

So basically my application.conf file has this entry:

db=mysql:root:@emp

However, when play starts up and tries to process a request, it complains displaying this in the  stacktrace.

play.exceptions.DatabaseException: Cannot connected to the database, " Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'name:@emp''

Is there a way to specify the URL explicitly telling the framework that it should not expect a password?

Thanks

Hi,

It looks like the documentation describes your exact use case:

db.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost/test
