I don't think JDBC driver definitions are any better in CFMX-7.  JDBC
seems to perform a ton better when I am using it to access our iSeries
AS400, but if you are using Access as a DB, why not just use an ODBC
driver?  Access is not exactly the most speedy database, so I wouldn't
think it would be an issue for you...?

Hi,

I'm trying to install a JDBC DS under CFMX 6.1 It's really a mess! :-( I
succeeded to define the compassTravel example as described in the docs,
but cannot manage to install any other DS on any other Access database,
even scupuleously copiing the path name with same upper and lower case.

Apparently one need to give this line in JDBC URL:
jdbc:pointbase:compasstravel,database.home=C:/inetsrv/wwwroot/cfdocs/get
ting_started/db
just to tell where the Acces
C:/inetsrv/wwwroot/cfdocs/getting_started/db/compasstravel.mbd is.
Why doesn't the Administrator just take
C:/inetsrv/wwwroot/cfdocs/getting_started/db/compasstravel.mbd
and does whatever needs to be done with it?

Another thing is the "driver class" which need to be
"com.pointbase.jdbc.jdbcUniversalDriver"

How can I guess what are the other classes, and I suspect the other
drivers available?

My question, is this mess any better under CFMX 7, and is it worth
upgrading?
