All, We have been using Orion & MS-SQL server successfully in a project. The JDBC driver we are using is called Opta2000 (see http://www.inetsoftware.de). Here's an excerpt from our data-sources.xml: <data-source class="com.evermind.sql.DriverManagerDataSource" name="NBWO_BACKEND" location="core/NBWO_BACKEND" xa-location="xa/NBWO_BACKEND" ejb-location="NBWO_BACKEND" connection-driver="com.inet.tds.TdsDriver" username="sa" password="sa" url="jdbc:inetdae7:nbtodev:1433?database=nbwo_backend" inactivity-timeout="120" /> We've had no troubles so far.

Also use the orion data source, don't use the msft source. So your data-source.xml should look like this. <data-source class="com.evermind.sql.DriverManagerDataSource" schema="database-schemas/ms-sql.xml" xa-location="XADS" location="DS" ejb-location="poolname" name="poolname" connection-driver="com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver" url="jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://servername:1433;DatabaseName=dbname" username="username" password="password" /> RANT: The people who are using Orion & Ms SQL Server need to start putting more knowledge on the list. I'll take the lead with some stuff, but people also need to contribute :) ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Orion-Interest" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 16, 2001 8:25 AM Subject: Microsoft JDBC Driver - Issues w/ Data Source > I'm having some issues with using the Microsoft SQL Server JDBC Driver with > Orion. > > Let me give you some context: > > Although I have some past experience with Orion (servlets, beans, jsp), I've > never used its Data Sources, so I know next to nothing about them.
