RE: Connection class unknown...
You could try importing java.sql.Connection (not javax.sql.Connection). Maybe this would help.

Hello everybody, I've got a problem with creating Connection object in my jsp where I'd like to use DB. I use JNDI and this is the code of my jsp's scriptlet: Context initContext = new InitialContext(); Context envContext = (Context)initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env"); DataSource ds = (DataSource)envContext.lookup("jdbc/TestDB"); //until this part it works perfectly, but when I add the next line, tomcat "screams", that //can not resolve symbol Connection... so classic error with unknown class Connection conn; //after previous line it doesn't work It is strange, because I have imported the whole javax.sql.* package Have somebody already met this problem?

However, you still have to make sure that at runtime, they are effectively available. the javax.sql package isn't available in jdk1.3, only 1.4 visibly (checked from sun api docs). What happens is that maybe you compiled with a 1.4 jdk and are executing tomcat with a 1.3 version. Could you check this ? Have somebody already met this problem?
