Mysql Connection in Java: Access denied for user @ localhost

I'm not able to connect to the Database but I don't know why, since the username and password are correct and I'm able to connect through phpmyadmin locally.

  Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
  // Setup the connection with the DB
  connect = DriverManager.getConnection(
            "jdbc:mysql://localhost/yerobot", "yerobot", "yerobot123");

  preparedStatement = connect.prepareStatement("select * from userdata");

  resultSet = preparedStatement.executeQuery();
  while(resultSet.next()){
    // do read rs
  }

Whenever I call for a connection, I get this stacktrace:

java.sql.SQLException: Access denied for user 'yerobot'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

You need to set the password for both yerobot@localhost and yerobot@'%'

MySQL differentiates local access and remote access passwords.

You got the username or password wrong, or it isn't authorised to connect from localhost. Simple as that. And perfectly clear from the exception.
