value="jdbc:mysql://localhost:8080/mkyongjava" i need to change this path so that it works at my place. where will I get this?

    <bean id="dataSource"
        class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
        <property name="driverClassName" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" />
        <property name="url" value="jdbc:mysql://localhost:8080/mkyongjava" />
        <property name="username" value="root" />
        <property name="password" value="password" />
    </bean>
  1. set up mysql in your localhost
  2. create a database named mkyongjava in your mysql
  3. modify username and password properties according to the values given at mysql setup
  4. modify your connection url..usually mysql listens on port 3306

Here's an example

<bean id="dataSource"
    class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
    <property name="driverClassName" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" />
    <property name="url" value="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/your_database_name" />
    <property name="username" value="your mysql username" />
    <property name="password" value="your mysql password" />
</bean>

don't forget to add the related mysql-connector jar file into your classpath.
