Looking at the stack trace, because it is very difficult for you to just read the error messages and you need someone else to do this for you,
I saw this:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException
at frame.Admin.jButton8ActionPerformed(Admin.java:360)

You have a NullPointerException at the Admin.java file at line 360

You are using something which is null, something which is not initialized. Try and see what is going on around that line and then if you can't fix it, post the code around that line, indicating which line it is

I'm guessing your connection "con" is null. It probably failed to get the connection and you would never know it because you've discarded the exception information

catch(ClassNotFoundException e){}
catch(SQLException e){}

That's why empty catch blocks are a bad idea.

Put e.printStackTrace() into those empty catch blocks and find out if your connection attempt is failing.

So there is the problem. What did you try to fix it?

So there is the problem. What did you try to fix it?

I would like to agree with Ezzaral and add some more comments.
In previous post you have been told the location of the error and asked to post relevant code indicating where the line was.
Then you posted your entire code, leaving us to search where in the world was that line with the error, even though you've been told which line was that and to post only that.

Also please next time to read the errors that you get. They are followed by very explanatory descriptions:

java.sql.SQLException: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
at com.mysql.jdbc.SQLError.createSQLException(SQLError.java:946)
at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.checkErrorPacket(MysqlIO.java:2941)
at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.checkErrorPacket(MysqlIO.java:868)
at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.secureAuth411(MysqlIO.java:3340)
at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.doHandshake(MysqlIO.java:1238)
at com.mysql.jdbc.Connection.createNewIO(Connection.java:2743)
at com.mysql.jdbc.Connection.<init>(Connection.java:1553)
at com.mysql.jdbc.NonRegisteringDriver.connect(NonRegisteringDriver.java:266)
at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:582)
at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:185)
at frame.Admin.<init>(Admin.java:39)

Are you sure that you are using the right username, password? Try to connect to the mysql command prompt using that username and password that you have in your code:

con=DriverManager.getConnection(url,"root","389");

Is it working? What combination did you use to login? Or you have set it so it won't need a password,
If you do not want to share that information it is understandable.
Your next move would be to check the API for the class: java.sql.DriverManager and check the description of the getConnection methods.
