Hi, I'm getting " Data source name not found and no default driver
specified" Error while connecting to MS Access database through
tomcat. I have  created user DSN for my db.
My connection code is:
 Connection con =null;
    try {
        Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
        String conStr = "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver
(*.mdb, *.accdb)};DBQ=" +
            "D:\\OLD D DRIVE\\FileManager\\FileManager.mdb";
        con = DriverManager.getConnection(conStr);
    } catch(Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();}

Pre-2007 it is:
   .mdb files
   {Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)} driver

2007 and later is:
   .accdb files
   {Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb, *.accdb)} driver

Also be sure that you use 32 bit Java as I believe the
ODBC driver is 32 bit.

My CPU is 64 bit and for creating DSN I'm executing "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe". I have installed jdk1.6.0_32 version of java.

32 or 64 bit Java?

So 32 bit Java and 32 bit ODBC.

And Access must be 32 bit as well as I don't believe a 64 bit version
exists.

Mysterious.

Can you access it via DSN?

yes I'm able to open it and view the contents. Is it required to have a META-INF/context.xml file? would that be a problem?

I meant - can you access it from Java using the DSN?

> Is it required to have a META-INF/context.xml file? would that be a problem?

That is configuration for Tomcat. Including defining data sources.

It is not needed when using DriverManager.

Arne

PS: Using an Access database from a web application usually gives
     problems as Access is not designed for that type of context.
