Mark, Version was 3.51.05.
& works ok. It now seems that it might be related to me trying to use the NamedPipeSocketFactory. When I use leave these properties out of the datasource url everything works ok. socketFactory=com.mysql.jdbc.NamedPipeSocketFactory namedPipePath=/mysql/pipe If anyone has managed to get named pipes working under Windows XP with JBoss, would they be nice enough to forward the URL used? <config-property name="ConnectionURL" type="java.lang.String">jdbc:mysql://localhost/activelist?socketFactory=com. mysql.jdbc.NamedPipeSocketFactory&namedPipePath=/mysql/pipe</config-prop erty> Other variations of namedPipePath, like c:/mysql/pipe also fail, and yes, there is a directory called c:\mysql Any help much appreciated, Greg. PS. Using the standard IP-based connection (i.e. not named-pipes) seems to kick MS Sql Servers arse in terms of speed. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Matthews" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Greg Matthews" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, December 29, 2002 11:27 AM Subject: Re: JDBC driver / JBoss > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > Greg Matthews wrote: > > All, > > > > The documention on the JDBC driver (v0.87) shows that ampersands are used to > > delimit driver parameters. > > I'm curious as to where you get a version # of '0.87'.
