Well after a ton of headaches I finally tried to move over to my devel box and try this again.
After the initial install of all the packages and finishing the configurations, I came up with the same problem again. However this time I renamed the Connector/J .jar from mysql-connector-java-3.0.17-ga-bin.jar to mysql-connector.jar and restarted tomcat $ /etc/init.d/tomcat5 restart And low and behold.... it seems to work. Of course I don't know if ti was the connector file name or that tomcat needed a restart, but I thought I'd post this for anyone else who may be having, or may have in the future, a similar problem. My guess is it was the file name issue, but since I wiped my original install on the webserver, I can't go back and check. Thanks for the help, sicne telling me it was a DB access problem allowed me to focus in on a certain area. -- Sent from the Roller - User forum at Nabble.com: http://www.nabble.com/Roller-2.0-new-install-problem-t710268c12275.html#a1968884
