Odd -- works for me using the double backslash just fine... You do seem to missing "microsoft:" in the beginning of the connection string, not sure if that's a typo or not. Mine began "jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver:" etc.
Did not have to mess with the port numbers (this was one of the things that I tried along the way). -----Original Message----- From: Dan Decker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 12, 2006 11:50 AM To: 'Karen Koch'; 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: RE: Tomcat using MS SQL2000 Named Instance It does not work when I use \\GP90. I tried the following and it works on the default instance. jdbc:sqlserver://KEYSTONE:1433;databaseName=TWO To determine if it is using the port #, I changed the port to 1430 and it no longer worked for the default instance. This tells me it is looking at the port #. Does the 2nd SQL2000 instance use a different port#? If so could I change the port # to the one the 2nd instance uses and would it work? How do you determine what port the 2nd instance is using?
