Re: Trouble with 7.1.2 JDBC driver

    Solved!

    I've downloaded the latest code from CVS and tried to build, and it
failed again! So I received Jerry's mail and realized that the Oracle's
JDBC driver was on my CLASSPATH...  just removed it and the build was
successful. I think ANT should be smarter when tring to guess which java
VM is installed.
    Also, I could now load all my BLOB data into the 7.1.2 database. Now
I'm gonna test the servlet...



                                                 Thank you!
