I've already switched over to 2.0.11 and it's been smooth.

Confused About JDBC Driver
I'm a bit confused here. can some please tell me what is the difference between this two files -- mm.mysql.jdbc-1.2c.tar.gz ( Includes mysql_comp.jar and mysql_uncomp.jar) -- mm.mysql-2.0.10-you-must-unjar-me.jar For JDBC driver to run with mysql which one do I need? I thought you only need .jar file. then whats the mm.mysql.jdbc-1.2c.tar.gz file for. Are they the same files??? thanks so much. --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?

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?
