Non-existent?? huh... wierd. I could have sworn I saw a lot of it on the company site (www.mysql.com).

As to the OP, the classpath environment variable is ignored by tomcat's default startup script and for very good reason. Given the manner in which the jsp is attempting to get a database connection, WEB-INF/lib of the web application is an excellent place for the mysql driver jar. I would start there. If the OP wants to use tomcat's container managed database pooling, it should be moved to the common/lib directory of tomcat's install dir as suggested by another responder.

For further details, the tomcat website has information on the classloader hierarchy and how it works as well as details on setting up container managed pooling.

Hi everybody!

I'ved downloaded mysql-connector-java-5.1.0.zip.

I'ved put the mysql-connector-java-5.1.0-bin.jar in
C:\Programmi\Java\jre1.6.0_01\lib and I'ved set the %CALSSPATH% on the same
directory.


I'ved create a jsp page:


<%@ page import="java.sql.*" %>
<%
String connectionURL =
"jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/bi?user=USER;password=PASSWORD";
Connection connection = null;
Statement statement = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
%>
<html><body>
<%
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance();
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(connectionURL, "", "");
statement = connection.createStatement();
rs = statement.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE username='ciao' and
password='ciao' and Abilitato = 1");
while (rs.next()) {
out.println(rs.getString("username")+"<br>");
}
rs.close();
%>


Tomcat send me an 500 error:


type Exception report
