[C1] Cocoon SQL vs ESQL

[Derek Hohls <dh...@csir.co.za>]

I have been struggling to get ESQL working... I had thought it was the database setup, but turns out that is OK (see below) - now I am stuck again.

Following previous suggestions, I have tried to get an equivalent of the sample code shippped wiht Cocoon working.  I could not find any ESQL to test, so I used the the SQL code instead - it worked!  But the - as far as I can see - equivalent code in ESQL does not work.

I hope someone with a sharp pair of eyes can see why the first sample would work, and the next one not??

Thanks!
Derek
