I think that MM.MySQL used to be packaged as a tar file, but not is distributed as a JAR. Use the newer one, you'll be better off. And do as the filename indicates: un-jar it. You'll end up with a directory that contains the actual driver file plus a bunch of other stuff like the source code. Put the driver JAR file (mm.mysql-2.0.10) in your CLASSPATH. If you're using it with Tomcat, put it in the appropriate directory, depending on whether you want your applications, Tomcat, or both to be able to access it. >--rahad --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
