JDBC connection with mysql getting org.springframework.jdbc.CannotGetJdbcConnectionException

Just started using mysql, attempting to get jdbc connection but I am getting this error.

Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.jdbc.CannotGetJdbcConnectionException: Could not get JDBC Connection; nested exception is org.apache.commons.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create PoolableConnectionFactory (Unknown database 'localhost')

Server is running and I am able to make queries into my database.

Here is what is in my jdbc.properties

jdbc.username=root
jdbc.password=password
jdbc.driver=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
jdbc.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/localhost?profileSQL=true

Here is what is in the spring config file
