Otherwise, make sure the PATH and LIBPATH used by JServ are the same as being used when you run from command-line. - Fernando ---------------------------------------------------------------- BEFORE YOU POST, search the faq at <http://java.apache.org/faq/> WHEN YOU POST, include all relevant version numbers, log files, and configuration files. Don't make us guess your problem!!! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Sir, I am trying to run UpdateQuery from a redhatlinux 6.2 server with Apache Jserv with PostGres. When I try a simple Insert statement or a Query statement from a Java Applicationit works fine, But when i try to do that through a servlet. It gives me No Suitable Driver. I have my PostGreSQL Driver in the ext directory of jre/lib/ext/ the following code tries to make a connection and inserts the statements try {Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver"); } catch(ClassNotFoundException ex){System.err.println(ex.getMessage());} try{ con=DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:postgresql://localhost/dbname","userna me",""); st= con.createStatement(); } catch(SQLException eft){System.err.println(eft.getMessage());} //the error reported here is No Suitable Driver try{ String stat="INSERT INTO ...." System.err.println(stat);st.executeUpdate(stat); } catch(Exception e){System.err.println(e.getMessage());} The Error reported here is Null Pointer Exception Is there any thing special with the servlet trying to access the PostGresql jdbc driver. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Please read the FAQ! <http://java.apache.org/faq/> To subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Search Archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/java-apache-users%40list.working-dogs.com/> Problems?: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Please read the FAQ! <http://java.apache.org/faq/> To subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Search Archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/java-apache-users%40list.working-dogs.com/> Problems?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
