Need opinions: JDBC capable database for Linux
Any opinions on which database (Oracle, DB2, Postgre, Informix, Sybase, etc) would be best for doing some JSP+database expirementation on a Red Hat 6 Intel Linux box? I'm just looking for something to play with... my biggest priority is that it not be an absolute nightmare to install and get working with JSP. Also, if anyone knows, which of these databases support JDBC on Linux. Thanks --Tod Liebeck, [EMAIL PROTECTED] === To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JSP-INTEREST".

Re: Need opinions: JDBC capable database for Linux
I have been playing with mySQL from TcX (www.tcx.se) that has a fine JDBC driver (twz1jdbcForMysql). It runs in Linux. My platform is linux-apache-jrun(and Servlet engine)-GNUjsp -JavaBeans-JDBC(twz1jdbcForMysql)-mySQL and it works fine!!! See the driver in http://www.voicenet.com/~zellert/tjFM/twz1jdbcForMysql-doc.html Tod Liebeck wrote: Any opinions on which database (Oracle, DB2, Postgre, Informix, Sybase, etc) would be best for doing some JSP+database expirementation on a Red Hat 6 Intel Linux box?

Re: Need opinions: JDBC capable database for Linux
count another vote for mysql. we've had more success with the mm jdbc driver http://www.worldserver.com/mm.mysql/ because it handles MetaData better (eg, at all) than the twz driver. === To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JSP-INTEREST".

Oracle has released the Oracle 8i database for Linux. I am sure that it has up-to-date JDBC drivers included.

Re: Need opinions: JDBC capable database for Linux
Perhaps I have a beta version then because I thought I had received a CD of Oracle 8i for Linux. If not...my mistake... [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 06/14/99 02:10:02 PM To: Glen C.

I am sure that it has up-to-date JDBC drivers included. no, oracle has release oracle 8.0.5, not 8i (aka 8.1.5), for linux. we've had trouble with occasional but deadly protocol violations talking to linux oracle 8.0.5 from linux/jdbc. no help from oracle on this subject. fyi the jdbc drivers for 8.0.5 and 8.1.5 are neither forward nor backward compatible. personal opinions of oracle software available upon request. === To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JSP-INTEREST".

Re: Need opinions: JDBC capable database for Linux
I've had luck using Postgres and Oracle. Postgres is fairly easy to get running and only requires a minimal amount of work to migrate to Oracle if you need to. The current version of Oracle 8 for Linux doesn't work on Red Hat 6 out of the box. We had to back out to 5.2 to get it to work. (some bad linking problems). Postgres drivers are fairly easy to get working so if you're doing a small project that's probably the way to go. Both Oracle and Postgres have type 4 drivers. I strongly recommend the Type 4 drivers for Oracle (use classes111.zip). Performance wise, you're definitely going to get better performance with Oracle especially under heavy load (and with many database connections). Any database with JDBC type 4 drivers will work. If the databases support ODBC then you can also use some sort of ODBC:JDBC bridge, but I wouldn't recommend it. Philip S.

Re: Need opinions: JDBC capable database for Linux
Hi, Personally I would recommend DB2, we have been using it with JSP on few platforms (NT and UNIX). It installs fairly easly compared to for example Oracle (which we also use). Also you can download beta code for Linux from IBM.
