I am running servlet file in eclipse using tomcat6. When running my file it shows the following error :
Error
processing resource’http://localhost/MyFirstDynaSer/SignUp…
java.sql.SQLException: Communication failure during handshake. Is
there a server running on localhost:3306?”
What would be my mistake? Could anybody help me.. This is my web.xml file.

The mistake i have done is i did not include my jar file in the Web-INf\lib folder.
and
i did not include jar file in java build path. this can be done by right click your project, click properties, select java built path, libraries tab, choose add extenal jars and select your mysql connector jar file ..hope it helps some naive like me.
ps : there is no problem in the port where mysql service is running. the port is by default 3306.
