I am tring to get an web site that I have developed with Java Studio Creator working on a VPS. I cannot get tomcat to comunicate with the MySQL database. I have got a minimal web site working, and I have added a simple dtabase query to it and I get the error at [1] (for full error see http://205.234.144.63:8080/minimal/). I have got a simple java app. working with MySQL.

What I have done;

Put the minimal.war file in /usr/local/jakarta/jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9/webapps.
Put in a Context tag in server.xml file relating to the .war file [2]. This is expanded by tomcat.
Put in a Realm tag relating to the jdbc driver [3].

You can see my .war file at http://www.geocities.com/hughmorgan72/minimal.zip. It requires a database called smsserver, with a table called unit, with a column called name.

Versions;
Apache Tomcat/5.5.9
Java Studio Creator 2004Q2 Version 9
Linux server.imecserver1.com 2.4.20-021stab028.24.777-enterprise #1 SMP Fri Jan 6 19:39:27 MSK 2006 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

Any suggestions? Thanks very much, my boss is breathing down my neck.
