Answer 1

i think classpath is to be set.........equal to the
System path of he jar file of your
driver.............
also do the ODBC connectivity from control
panel.......people dont perform that step.........i
hope it will not have any prob then.........
i was having the same prob yesterday but now its
solved...........
best of luck,
shibhsThis has nothing to do with ODBC, since he is using a JDBC Driver (except for the foolish attempt with the JDBC-ODBC Bridge that is mentioned once), and, since this is a JSP, it will run in a Servlet container, and no Servlet container will use the System CLASSPATH. They have their own, and one part of that CLASSPATH includes all jars found in the WEB-INF/lib directory of the application involved.
