Hey, what's the standard way of setting up a web interface to a MS Access
database file?

I've got an Apache web server. I installed JDK, Tomcat and mod_jk for java,
servlets, and jsp support. I can pull up the jsp pages and so forth. But
I've got  a java servlet that is attempting to read/write a Microsoft Access
database. And upon submitting a form that is supposed to update the
database, it fails.

I figured the jdbc driver was all that's needed. Is this true? I don't know
whether some other software is needed in between, like an sql server, or
whether jdbc can write directly to the database. so that's issue number one.

Second issue, the database file itself does not exist. This is a fact. I'm
assuming the java code will create it upon first usage, but I'm not a java
programmer and I don't want to learn java just to figure it out.

third issue, maybe i don't have jdbc installed correctly. There's a
jdbc-stdext.jar that comes with tomcat, and is in the server/lib folder. 

Anyone know?
