Hi, I'm really baffled right now because I'm trying to get a DB connection using JSTL's SQL
ataSource tag and just will not work. the code for the page is..
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"%>
<%@ taglib prefix="sql" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/sql"%>
<sql:setDataSource var="dataSource"
driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
url="jdbc:mysql//localhost/church"
user="admin"
password="qwe123"/>
<sql:query var="ids" dataSource="${dataSource}">
SELECT * FROM member
</sql:query>
<c:forEach items="${ids}" var="row">
<c
ut value="${row}"/>
</c:forEach>
and it's running on
Tomcat 5.0.
the error that I get when I run that page is...
description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.
exception

the thing is...I have my driver in Tomcat's /common/lib folder and the jar file is ...mysql-connector-java-3.0.11-stable-bin.jar
if anybody could help out...it would be much appreciated.
Thank You
