Question

Can any one help me how to run this code…

If I compile this code it complies successfully, But when I run class file throws

This is the stack trace for that exception :

Exception: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
    java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

Here is the code :

import java.io.*; 
import java.sql.*;

public class SampleMysql {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        String Driver;
        Statement stmt; 
        ResultSet rs; 
        Driver = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
        Connection con = null;

        try {
            Class.forName(Driver);
            con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/TempAttendance","root", password); 

            if(!con.isClosed()){

                System.out.println("Successfully connected to MySQL DataBase \n");
                stmt = con.createStatement(); 
                String tablename = "Employee_Master";
                String sql;

                rs = stmt.executeQuery("select * from Employee_Master");

                while(rs.next()) {
                    System.out.print(rs.getString("Name"));
                }
            }
        } catch(Exception e) {
            System.err.println("Exception: " + e.getMessage());
        }  finally {
            try {
                if(con != null)
                    con.close();
            } catch(SQLException e) {
            }
        }
    }
}

You should download and place your driver jar (mysql jar) file in your class path
