I have jsp form :

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./Styles/Site.css" type="text/css" />
<title>Create new customer</title>
</head>
<body>
    <fieldset>
        <legend>Create new customer</legend>
        <form action="CreateCustomerServlet" method="GET">
            // text of form ... 
            <input type="submit" value="Create customer" />
        </form>
    </fieldset>

</body>
</html>

that go to CreateCustomerServlet –

/**

    // members ..

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    /**

    public CreateCustomerServlet() {
        super();
        // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
    }

    /**
     * @see HttpServlet#doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
     *      response)
     */
    protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,
            HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {

        // get the parameters from the jsp form  .. 
            saveInDB() ; 
    }

    private void saveInDB() throws ClassNotFoundException, SQLException {

        Connection connection = null;
        try {
            String strServer = "jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1:3306/testdb";
            MysqlDataSource ds = new MysqlConnectionPoolDataSource();
            ds.setServerName(strServer);
            ds.setDatabaseName("testdb");
            connection = ds.getConnection("root", "");
            Statement statement = connection.createStatement();
            statement.execute(" /** sql INSERT statement **/");
        } catch (SQLException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } finally {
            try {
                connection.close();
            } catch (SQLException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }

    }
}

when it get to the line – connection = ds.getConnection("root", ""); it throws exception – com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLNonTransientConnectionException: Cannot load connection class because of underlying exception: 'java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "mysql:"'.

    You mix 2 different ways to establish a connection.

    You can do :

    MysqlDataSource ds = new MysqlDataSource();
ds.setServerName("localhost");
ds.setPort("3306");
ds.setDatabaseName("testdb");
ds.setUser("root");
ds.setPassword("");
Connection connection = ds.getConnection();

    or

    Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/testdb","root","");

    By the way it’s a good practice to put the connection settings in a property file. You should read this excellent post and this related article.
