hi, now I have created a "System DSN", its works in the sense that now there is no ODBC or data source name error, but now I am getting the following exception.
"org.apache.commons.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create PoolableConnectionFactory (General error)" everything works fine when I run tomcat not as service (I am using win2k). But I want to run it as service.. any idea?

Don't make your DSN inside "User DSN" when running Tomcat as a service... I've been using Tomcat and Access under win2k... and don't have problems... -----Original Message----- From: Wade Chandler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 02, 2004 3:18 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Connecting to MS Access DB Muhammad Khalid Sohail Khan wrote: > Hi everybody, > I am a student and new to tomcat.

Myself and others have talked about this to people at different times. Try running tomcat not as a service, but as a standalone application and you'll find that it will work for you, so it deals with a security setting some where on your computer. I assume this is on a 2000/XP machine. You may have to give access to some registry entries to the user the service is running as for this to work properly. Anyways, it's a security issue in one way or another or it's a path related issue (the user the service is running as doesn't have all the paths needed for some native libs or something). Try adding the user the service is running as to all the directories under tomcat recursively, possibly some registry entries, and possibly some dll's for the access database drivers.
