This may be OT because I really think it's
a Tomcat setup issue. My apologies if it is,
but quite frankly, the Apache group here
leaves a bit to be desired.

In short, can't connect to MySQL in JSP.
I know the database is good because I use
it with PHP all the time.

I started out copy my source code,
Tomcat XML files, traces, etc. for you
to peruse, but decided to forgo that,
and since it's probably a Tomcat setup
problem just ask if anyone has survived
the process and see if he or she
could walk me through it.
