I want JDBC connection to MSaccess.
But
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:access");
it gives
Type mismatch: cannot convert from Connection to Connection
what is solution for that?
I m using Servlet and jsp
in jsp -
Organization Name: <input type="text" name="Organization_name" ><br>
i want when Organization_name entered it will be add it in my access database
i have tried but i m facing following problem
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:access");
it gives Type mismatch: cannot convert from Connection to Connection
you need Connection
from java.sql
it seems you have imported a wrong class
and getConnection()
needs complete jdbc URL
.
In very simple words your code should have following imports
import java.sql.Connection
try this:
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
...
try {
String username = "";
String password = "";
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:northwind", username, password);
...
northwind is the name of the sample database in Access. Use whatever you've got.
The Connection
object that is being returned by getConnection()
is not the same Connection
class you have referenced in your package imports at the top of your class file.
This could be an classloader issue. The object created is from the different classloader and is referred in another classloader.
