Hello, everyone. I'm implementing one servlet that connect to MS SQL server7.0 with your weblogic db driver. Here is my part of codes: try { trace("Trying the JDBC driver."); Class.forName(szDriver); String szURL = "jdbc:" + szDriverType + ":" + szDatabase; trace("Getting a database connection."); Connection dbConnect = DriverManager.getConnection( szURL, szUserName, szPassword); checkForWarning(dbConnect.getWarnings()); //<--The error(warning) occurs here!!! trace("Connected to database."); return dbConnect; } catch(SQLException eSQLException) { trace("An SQL Exception was thrown:\n" + eSQLException); } catch (Exception eException) { // some other kind of exception occurred so dump the call stack eException.printStackTrace(); } While I'm connecting to DB with that code, I keep getting the error(warning) below. ================================== SQL State : null Message : Could not determine default character set because weblogic.b.j:Database meta data query failed. Vendor : 0 ================================== Please help, it's urgent. Thanks.
