Hi all, i used seam gen to generate a new seam project for my application. in the seam gen setup dialog, i wanted to directly connect to mssql server, i am VERY POSITIVE that i used the right driver class and right connection url, but i can NEVER connect to sql server directly. HOWEVER, if i tried to connect to hypersonic database first, then modify the ds.xml file so that it will connect to mssql server, then it WORKED. has anybody anywhere mentioned that using seam gen you can only connect to hypersonic database first? and NOT DIRECTLY to other database? the only way to connect to other databases is to modify the ds.xml file? this is my experience anyway using seam gen. it does not make any sense this way, so please somebody could answer this question, many thanks, Joan View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4000925#...
