MySQL java connection - kan ikke oprette forbindelse

Er igang med at forbinde java til en MySQL database for første gang og støtte ind i lidt problemer. Har installeret xampp som jeg ofte bruger sammen med php, hvilket virker helt fint. Har også importeret de nødvendige klasser. Har følgende kode:

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.PreparedStatement;
import java.sql.ResultSet;


public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
    {
        Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
       
        Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/testdb","root","root");
       
        PreparedStatement statement = con.prepareStatement("select * from name");
       
        ResultSet result = statement.executeQuery();
       
        while(result.next()) {
            System.out.println(result.getString(1) + " " + result.getString(2));
        }
    }
}




Får følgende fejl i konsollen:

Jeg bruger eclipse forresten, hvis det skulle have nogen betydning.
