Dear Sir,
I am trying to run UpdateQuery from a redhatlinux 6.2 server with Apache
Jserv with PostGres.
When I try a simple Insert statement or a Query statement from a Java
Applicationit works fine,
But when i try to do that through a servlet.
It gives me No Suitable Driver.
I have my PostGreSQL Driver in the ext directory of jre/lib/ext/
the following code tries to make a connection and inserts the statements
try {Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver"); }
catch(ClassNotFoundException ex){System.err.println(ex.getMessage());}
try{
con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://localhost/dbname","userna
me","");
st= con.createStatement(); } catch(SQLException
eft){System.err.println(eft.getMessage());}
//the error reported here is No Suitable Driver
try{
String stat="INSERT INTO ...." System.err.println(stat);st.executeUpdate(stat);
}
catch(Exception e){System.err.println(e.getMessage());}
The Error reported here is Null Pointer Exception
Is there any thing special with the servlet trying to access the PostGresql
jdbc driver.
