Hi,
I have installed jboss-3.2.1_tomcat-4.1.24 on my system. I want to connect to MS SQL Server 2000 database available on a different. I have changed mssql-ds.xml as follows

<local-tx-datasource>
<jndi-name>mySQLServerPool</jndi-name>
<connection-url>jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://192.168.100.12:1433;DatabaseName=EOTSTORE</connection-url>
<driver-class>com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver</driver-class>
<user-name>sa</user-name>
sa
</local-tx-datasource>

as pasted it all\deploy directory.

I got the following message on Server console which i think says that datasource deployed successfully.

19:06:01,734 INFO [MainDeployer] Starting deployment of package: file:/C:/jboss

I am using the following program to access database through Datasource.

import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.naming.*;




public class simplesql {

public static void main(String argv[])
throws Exception
{
java.sql.Connection conn = null;
java.sql.Statement stmt = null;
try {

// ============== Make connection to database ==================
// Obtain a Datasource connection from the WebLogic JNDI tree.
Context ctx = null;

// Put connection properties in to a hashtable.
Hashtable props = new Hashtable();
props.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
props.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://localhost:1099/");
props.put("java.naming.rmi.security.manager", "yes");
props.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.naming");

// Get a context for the JNDI look up
ctx = new InitialContext(props);
System.out.println("got the context "+ctx);
javax.sql.DataSource ds
= (javax.sql.DataSource) ctx.lookup ("java:/mySQLServerPool");
conn = ds.getConnection();
System.out.println("Making connection...\n");

// execute some SQL statements to demonstrate the connection.
stmt = conn.createStatement();

try {
stmt.execute("drop table empdemo");
System.out.println("Table empdemo dropped.");
} catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println("Table empdemo doesn't need to be dropped.");
}

stmt.execute("create table empdemo (empid int, name varchar(30), dept int)");
System.out.println("Table empdemo created.");

int numrows = stmt.executeUpdate("insert into empdemo values (0, 'John Smith', 12)");
System.out.println("Number of rows inserted = " + numrows);

numrows = stmt.executeUpdate("delete from empdemo where empid = 0");
System.out.println("Number of rows deleted = " + numrows);
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception was thrown: " + e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
if (stmt != null)
stmt.close();
if (conn != null)
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException sqle) {
System.out.println("SQLException during close(): " + sqle.getMessage());
}
}
}

}

The code is compiling perfectly, but while running i am getting the following error:

Please help me to solve this problem.
