Pointbase -- STUCK!!

[Josh Juneau]

Hello Java Gurus...

I've been attempting to create a connection to my local Pointbase database for quite some time now without any luck. I usually work with Oracle and have no problems, however, this one is giving me migranes!

Here is the code which I am using to attempt connection:

public void getConnection()throws Exception {

try{

// The PointBase Universal JDBC Driver

String l_driver = "com.pointbase.jdbc.jdbcUniversalDriver";

// Load the PointBase JDBC Driver

Class.forName(l_driver).newInstance();

// The URL for the sample PointBase database
String l_URL = "jdbc ointbase:server://localhost:9092/mydb";

// Database UserID

String l_UID = "myuname";

// Database Password

String l_PWD = "mypwd";

// Establish connection with the database and return a Connection object

conn = DriverManager.getConnection(l_URL, l_UID, l_PWD);

}
catch (Exception e){
System.out.println("Connection Error : " + e);
}
}

Can anyone detect what I am doing incorrectly? I am trying to access this javabean using a JSP page...which does not give me much of an error message to go on. I know that it is the javabean causing issues though because each time I try to make a call to the getConnection method, it fails.

Thanks in advance!
