Good evening

I'm trying to install a webapp: sakai, on a remote server; but I'm getting
that error:

Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: Access denied for user 'sa'@'localhost'

I'm using tomcat7, mysql 5.1, mysql-connector-java-5.1.21 and java 6_33.

tomcat instance starts fine.

before deploying sakai, there were no errors while starting or shutting
down tomcat.

I've already granted all privileges on the DB sakai to the user: sakai via
the command:

CREATE DATABASE sakai DEFAULT CHARACTER SET UTF8
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON sakai.* to 'sakai'@localhost' identified by
'password'
FLUSH PRIVILEGES
QUIT

also; I have put the correct username and password in the sakai.properties
file, and removed the anonymous users also.
I appreciate your help.

Sincerely
