Ok I'm giving you all information I have. The application currently throwing this exception at me is ActiTime, a freeware (but not free) web-based time management application.
The full error message is: Unable to instantiate logger class 'com.mysql.jdbc.log.Jdk14Logger', exception in constructor? Running Ubuntu 8.04 LTS server edition on AMD 64 using the certified versions of tomcat5.5 and mysql. Versions are: Kernel 2.6.24-21-server Tomcat 5.5.25-5 Mysql 5.0.51a-3 Libmysql-Java 5.1.5 liblog4j1.2-java 1.2.15-2 (in /usr/share/java/) Sun Java (java-6-sun-1.6.0.07) The application requests to use Sun Java instead of the free gjc environment. So: the whole gjc environment is uninstalled (hopefully) and >>update-alternatives --config java<< only returns Sun Java 1.5 and 1.6. I have followed the vendors instructions and edited server.xml and the policy file accordingly. What other information do you need? ** Attachment added: "Error message formatted by 3rd party vendor" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/22036059/Clipboard01.gif ** Changed in: mysql-dfsg-5.0 (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New -- tomcat cannot connect to mysql https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217607 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
