Make sure you are using a System DSN, not a User DSN when you set up your ODBC DSN.

Subject: Cann't set up Connection in init()

Hi, everyone, please help me out,
 
I encountered a strange problem.
When I want to use jdbc-odbc-brider to set up a database Connection in function init() of a servlet, I get the following error:
    java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Client unable to establish connection
 
Here is the snip of code:
 public void init() throws ServletException
 {
  super.init();
 
  String szURL = "jdbc:odbc:"+"MyDSN";
  try {
   Class.forName ("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
   m_con = DriverManager.getConnection (szURL, "sa", "");
  } catch (SQLException e) {
   System.out.println(e.toString());
  } catch (java.lang.Exception e) {
   // Got some other type of exception.  Dump it.
   e.printStackTrace ();
  }
 }
Thanks in advance.
Jianhong
