Hi,

I'm new to Java, JSP, Eclipse, Derby and Tomcat but have a strong background in 
software development so shouldn't be this stuck ...

I'm working through the Eclipse tutorial 'Creating Database Web Applications 
with Eclipse'.  Here's a summary of my configuration:

JSP code for JSTL tags says:  <sql:setDataSource dataSource="jdbc/SampleDB">
context.xml has a Resource tag with name="jdbc/SampleDB" and 
url="jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/SAMPLE"
Data Source Explorer confirms that Derby contains a DB called SAMPLE.
SQL File Editor can connect to the SAMPLE DB and update it.

When I run my JSP page, I get the following error:  The connection was refused 
because the database SAMPLE was not found.

Running Eclipse 3.3.0, Tomcat 6.0.13 and Derby 10.2.2 on JDK 1.6.0.
Appreciate any help you can give me.

Mike


Often this problem is because the default directory being used by Network Server (NS) does not contain the database (in this case SAMPLE). If you start Network Server while cd'd to the directory containing SAMPLE or specify 'java -Dderby.system.home=<dir-with-SAMPLE> ...' on the command line starting Network Server then NS will be able to find the DB with the URL you are using.
