java.sql.SQLException with jdbc:odbc bridge driver and api

K

Kermit Piper

Hello,

I've seen a lot of information on this error: java.sql.SQLException:
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no
default driver specified.

However, the only definitive solution I can find is going to Control
Panel-->Administrative Tools-->Data Sources(OBDC)-->System DSN-->etc. I
did this and the connection tests fine. So, this is not the cause of
the error in this case. So, given what I have explained and the snippet
below, can someone please offer some help in resolving this. I am
running in the following environment: Windows XP Pro, SQL Server 2000,
JBoss 4.0.2, JDK 150_07.

1. created my database
2. created a system DSN
3. did the required modifications in it
4. added the rt.jar to the web-inf\lib dir and did another build, then
restarted JBoss.

// JDBC:ODBC bridge using api and using table:

This method is used in my LoginServlet:
public String validateUser(String inputUserid, String inputPwd) throws
SQLException
{
String returnString = null;
String dbUserid = "testuser";
String dbPassword = "password" ;
try
{
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
}
catch (ClassNotFoundException cnfe)
{
System.out.println(cnfe);
}
try
{
Connection con =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:eek:dbc:LocalServer",
dbUserid ,dbPassword);
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
String sql = "select USERID from USERTABLE where USERID
= '" +
inputUserid + "' and PASSWORD = '" + inputPwd +"' ;" ;
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
if (rs.next())
{
returnString = rs.getString("USERID");
}
stmt.close();
con.close();
}
catch (SQLException sqle)
{
System.out.println(sqle);
}
return returnString ;
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
KP
