Starting...

[Migrated From Jforum.net]

I followed all the instruction of the initial topic of this forum and I had no problem But when I try to call JForum, nothing happened. THis is the result I got:

http://localhost:8080/JForum (the call)

The URL is changed to

http://localhost:8080/JForum/forums/list.page (the result with blank page)


What's the problem? Where did I fall?

hmm, probably the database ( I mean, the Connection Pool )failed to start. Please be sure that database name, username and password are correct. Then restart tomcat.

You may want to try to take a look at tomcat logs ( TOMCAT_HOME/logs ), and see if there is some exception in there, which could help finding the problem.

i have similar problem. The database.properties files have been checked and the dbase, usrname and pwd match my database. What else can cause this problem?

The exception i got is:

Hm, are you using JDK >= 1.4? JForum will not work with 1.3.x series
