Derby 10.10. JNDI connection with JBoss AS 7.1 : Wrong driver class [class org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver]

Question

I have created JNDI connection with JBoss AS 7.1 and able to get DataSource. But when trying to get connection I am getting below error.

Please suggest where I am doing wrong.

Here is exception I have received on eclipse console.

Answer 1

As the exception says, you have the wrong driver class for this connection URL.

Derby supports two types of deployments: embedded, and client/server.

http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.10/getstart/cgsquck70629.html

The two different types of deployment use different JDBC driver class names, and different JDBC Connection URL syntax.

Here's some information about the embedded driver and the embedded URL: http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.10/getstart/twwdactivity1_overview.html

And here's some information about the client driver and the client URL: http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.10/getstart/twwdactivity2.html
