Hi All,

I'm a newbie in programming right now I'm trying to create a connection between jboss and my db which is Microsoft SQL 2000 SP2 the problem is during deployment I'm encountering erros. I have looked and tried different solutions such as upgrading the SP2 to SP3a but when I looked into the version after running the setup it remains as SP2. I have previously used the SQL 2000 SP2 before and it did'nt have any problem nut now this error occured. Could any please help me. I really need help. Thanks

org.jboss.resource.JBossResourceException: Could not create connection; - nested throwable: (java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Error establishing socket.)
