[opencms-dev] Using Microsoft's JDBC drivers...

[Evans, Michael]

To get the MS JDBC drivers going you need to (using tomcat 4.1.18 / opencms
5.0 rc2):

1.	Copy c:\program files\microsoft sql server 2000 driver for
jdbc\lib\*
	to   %CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\opencms\WEB-INF\lib
2.	Edit
%CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\opencms\WEB-INF\config\opencms.properties
3.	Search for "merant.datadirect" and replace with "microsoft"
4.	Search for "merant" and replace with "microsoft"
5.	Save and restart tomcat.
6.	Start wizard, change jdbc:merant to jdbc:microsoft when selecting
the database connection

If you get a "error establishing socket" error then check the port SQL
server instance is running on by running enterprise manager, right hand
clicking on your server, properties, click network configuration button,
tcp/ip, properties.
