A JDBC tutorial is here http://www-db.stanford.edu/~ullman/fcdb/oracle/or-jdbc.html Don't use JDBC-ODBC bridge. From the error message it seems that it is using JDBC-ODBC bridge. You will get the JDBC driver from ORACLE_HOME\jdbc\lib. For 8i the file will be classes12.zip. Create a lib directory in WEB-INF directory. Tomcat is case sensitive and lib must be in small letters. Copy classes12.zip to WEB-INF\lib and rename it to classes12.jar. Now to connect to database use the JDBC URL like jdbc:oracle:thin:hr/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:1521:orcl. Don't for to restart Tomcat after putting the JAR file in WEB-INF\lib. The Oracle installation provides some sample Java code. Look in jdbc folder for it. -- rgds Anto Paul --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
