Re: jdk1.3.0_02 tomcat 3.2.1 jdbc problem

[Gary Dale]

Could be one of two problems. When you run it as a service, it probably 
is running as system but when you run it as an app, it runs with your 
user id. Check the privieleges!

Or it could be the jdk1.3 problem. It won't run as a service - shuts 
down when you log off! I'm not sure it is fixed in jdk 1.3.2 but I'm 
using 1.2.x which doesn't have this problem.

Sounds a lot like the problem I just had.  It's been so long since I have
messed with jdbc, but if I recall correctly, the class files for jdbc aren't
part of the standard classes are they?  If they aren't, and you have to
include them in your CLASSPATH environment variable, then you will have to
add those in manually to the wrapper.properties file in the \conf
subdirectory directory of Tomcat.  It would look like:
wrapper.class_path=$(wrapper.java_home)\lib\whatever.jar
Add each entry from your CLASSPATH environment variable like the line above.
Apparently (as I have found out today), Tomcat will ignore your CLASSPATH
variable when run as a service.

Hope this helps you!
