John, I haven't seen this, but I'm running a more convoluted setup.
jdk 1.4.1_01 tomcat 4.1.18 cocoon2-dev (from cvs) all on a Win2K/Pro box. I have been able to get connections to mysql and xindice. I haven't tried postgresql yet since I don't have a database in that. All databases are local. If memory serves my correctly, 4.0.3 was a problem child for a number of reasons. Can you move up to 4.0.6 and see if that helps with the problem? Sorry to be not of much help. I was going to say check your host and user tables in mysql, but if you can connect with the same URL, then that's obviously not the problem. /mde/ just my two cents . . . . __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
