Rickard,
Thanks for taking the time to help with this. I tried your suggestions and,
indeed, I get a ClassNotFoundException with both methods (Class.forname(),
loadClass()) when trying to load
"org.jboss.minerva.datasource.JDBCPoolDataSource".
Is this a bug? Working as designed? More importantly (to me), can I get
around it somehow?
Thanks again,
Bill Pfeiffer
