Here is the gave code

try {
            String connectionURL =      "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/kholofelodb";
            Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");

            System.out.println("connecting to psysical database...");
            Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(connectionURL, USER,
                    PASS);

            Statement statement = conn.createStatement();
            System.out.println("Connection has been made");

            Scanner keyBoardScanner = new Scanner(System.in);
            System.out.println("Enter table name:");
            String tableName = keyBoardScanner.nextLine();

            System.out.println("Creating table...");
            statement.executeQuery("create table " + tableName
                    + " (name , age ,salary)");
            System.out.println("Table successfully created");
            System.out.println("Inserting data into the table ...");
            statement.executeUpdate("insert into " + tableName
                    + "values (kholofelo , 21 , 9969696)");
        }

how do I get this code to work? I am only a beginner with JDBC….

for the above code; PASS = “passowrd”, USER = “root”

I had a problem with port which it was fixed through this site

thanks a lot
