A solution to this problem would be greatly appreciated. I have now spent over 10 hours investigating this problem, and still have no solution. We have installed Tomcat 5 and the latest MySQl ConnectorJ driver on 3 different platforms, and experience this annoying, what seems to be common problem, yet no solution with Tomcat 5. I have configured, re-configured, followed discussion forems (mainly related to Tomcat 4). The mysql connectorJ jar file is in $CATALINA/common/lib like stated at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/jndi-datasource-examples-howto.html . There something not documented or clear in the docs, as many people are having this issue.

Here is the SQLException

Error: java.sql.SQLException: Cannot load JDBC driver class 'null' SQL state: null

Here is a snap shot of the server.xml file:

Does anyone have a successful Tomcat 5 and MySQL Connector J configuration? In desparate need of the correct configuration. Thanks all.
