failure of jdbc dirver

[Steven Dahlin <ap...@gmail.com>]

I am getting the following error indicating the derby database not found:

2010-05-17 16:30:00,313 [main] ERROR JPOX.RDBMS.Schema  - Failed
initialising database. Please check that your database JDBC driver is
accessible, and the database URL and username/password are correct.
Exception : Cannot create JDBC driver of class '' for connect URL 'null'
org.apache.commons.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create JDBC driver of
class '' for connect URL 'null'

In trying to get Continuum 1.4.0 up and running on Tomcat 6.  I have set up
the location of the context info needed for the driver in both the
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/continuum.xml and
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/apache-continuum-1.4.0/META-INF/context.xml
locations.  The file is structured as follows:

<Context path="/apache-continuum-1.4.0"

docBase="${catalina.home}/apache-continuum-1.4.0/apache-continuum-1.4.0.war">
  <Resource name="jdbc/users"
            auth="Container"
            type="javax.sql.DataSource"
            username="sa"
            password=""
            driverClassName="org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver"
            url="jdbc:derby:database/users;create=true" />
  <Resource name="jdbc/continuum"
            auth="Container"
            type="javax.sql.DataSource"
            username="sa"
            password=""
            driverClassName="org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver"
            url="jdbc:derby:database/continuum;create=true" />
  <Resource name="mail/Session"
            auth="Container"
            type="javax.mail.Session"
            mail.smtp.host="localhost"/>
</Context>

The derby.jar file is in the /usr/share/lib and
/var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/apache-continuum-1.4.0/WEB-INF/lib directories.  I
have seen various sites indicating solutions but cannot get it to work.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi Steven, 

Have you tried to specify the absolute path of the continuum database for the url. 

url="jdbc:derby:/home/gwen/Desktop/apache-continuum-1.4.0/data/databases;create=true"
