I did and I meant to post it here for you but got sidetracked. I believe that this was a driver problem. In my case, for some reason, this problem only occurred when I used JDK1.5.0.11. With JDK 1.6, everything works ok. I suspect that this was because my database driver is for 1.6, but I haven't looked into it further because of more pressing issues. Make sure that you have copied your database driver to your server/default/lib directory. Let me know if you need further help.
