Hello,
I'm having trouble getting Eclipse to work with Mysql/Tomcat.
In Eclipse, I have set up a project and have added a Tomcat server and added
the project to the server.
The project consists of a simple example of a standard struts architecture for
the MVC.
Model: Artist.java, ArtistSearchService.java
View: search.jsp, SearchForm.java
Controller: ArtistSearchAction.java
The ArtistSearchSerview.java connects to mysql, searches for Artists and
creates Artists objects.
If I deploy this to Tomcat, every thing works fine.
But when I run inside Eclipse it will not connect to the database. I get the
errors listed below.
Funny thing is, in Eclipse I have also tried setting a data source for this
database.
This also works fine and I can connect to the DB from the data source, but I
still get the error.
So how do you use Eclipse with Tomcat and MySQL? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for the help,
Kevin
