Communications link failure during SDK initial setup

Development
1

Hi there, I’m new here not too sure if I’m posting this in the correct place but let me know if not. I’m trying to follow the guide here https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/OpenMRS+SDK#OpenMRSSDK-1.DevelopmentEnvironmentCheck but I am getting the error below when trying to create server. Is this what I should be doing? Tried first going through the new developer checklist but I was getting a different error and upon seeing this tutorial I kind of think it might be deprecated, as it led me to an older sdk? Let me know, I’m sure I’m doing something wrong

Looks like an issue with your Internet connection. Do you see the error consistently when you try again? Can you check with a different Internet connection?

Ya happens constantly, I have tried from both home and work but nothing. When I was doing the change the other way as per the new dev guide, the error was that there was an incorrect header in pom.xml. That’s why I’m thinking I should be following this guide instead?

Okay, it seems to be an issue with your local database connection. Have you changed the database url or used the default? Do you have MySQL up and running?
