I purchased and downloaded the SCJD assigment last May, and the year deadline is coming up.
I requested permission (twice) to upload the completed assignment from who2contact@sun.com - no response.
I sent e-mail to ocpexam_ww@oracle.com at oracle - no response after 5 business days, contrary to what they state.
I've been on hold for more than an hour at 1-800-529-0165, the Oracle "university" help number (listening to stupid, clanky piano music). If I leave a message as suggested, instead of the option of holding, I assume thats another black hole.
Does anyone know if I can expect a response from Oracle, and then hopefully be a useful response?
Has anyone uploaded an assignment purchased the past few months, prior to the buyout of Sun by Oracle?

Thanks for any response or helpful hints.
I get the following error when trying to execute DBTestRunner from "SCJD Exam with J2SE 5 Platform":

Exception in thread "main" java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect

Any comments would be appreciated; I have tried a number of things to fix this. I get this running in Eclipse or from the command line.

Thanks in advance!
