[opencms-dev] OpenCMS and Microsoft SQL Server

[No�l Peeters]

Oh dear, oh dear,

Just finished downloading merant drivers. Aaargh. 15
day evaluation, and they have renamed the drivers !!!

It is now com.ddtek.sqlserver... So the setup don't
work :(

Anyway, thought to start using the MS driver, at least
it is free :-).

Changed the OpenCMS.properties file, changing all
merant stuff to microsoft. Seems no problem, but I
still get a 'class not found' exception. 

I guess this is a problem with the location of the jar
files, but I haven't got a clue about the correct
location. Any ideas???

TIA once again.

PS : Still like the idea that mssql is in the setup :D
