Eclipse, XAMPP, and JDBCFenixZero - October 7, 2009 - 5:02pm
I have installed Eclipse and XAMPP on my portable apps drive. I have Eclipse draw from a JDK in its folder, as suggested in this forum. Anyway, I can't seem to get JDBC working with Eclipse. I have both the Apache and mySQL servers/services running, but Eclipse says that it can't establish a connection because it can't load the Driver. Does anyone know what I can do to fix it? I don't want to install of this on my personal computer, I want to have it portable. Thanks in advance. ( categories: )

I'm not sure exactly what is
I'm not sure exactly what is going on but I do know loading a driver needs administrator rights... That's probably your main problem.

Classpath
Hello,
I may be wrong but I think it's a Java Classpath issue. Are you using this kind of code ? Class.forName('full.driver.class.name');
If yes, this is a classpath issue. It means Class.forName looks for a class named like that and tries to create an instance of this class. But because Classpath is not configured, the driver class is not found.
In Eclipse, try to right-click your project and select "Build Path \ Configure Build path" and then, do one of these steps :
- try to add the corresponding JDBC library
- try to add the jar containing your JDBC driver.
I hope this will help.

Guillaume

Are you using Eclipse or my Eclipse Portable?
And what can't it establish a connection with?
Siggys waste Bandwidth... that's why I have one.
