Usually, you'll get a message like "SQLException: Cannot connect to database using password: NO" or something like that.

This exception message is so irritating because it provides absolutely no information at all. It suggests that the driver class name is null, but that's not the case. This issue comes up again and again on the list, and nobody is ever really sure what the ultimate "fix" is. In my case, simply re-entering the configuration from scratch seems to be the best thing to do (and check those JARs). - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkmtbMMACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PA1XQCfSVKCLBwoBzDHH6NLxQJ8r6Ek Qf0An3J38gpf8vHQPxdOnt8PsNtZXRV7 =Yjrp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
