Hi. The same thing has happened to me too. I had run xwiki without changing the conf.xml file first. When I changed the database after the very first call I got the error you mentioned below. My guess is that when you run it for the first time, it 'sticks' to the database it sees first and refuses to let go... :) I suggest you export a backup xar file (if you have any data) from your running wiki, then install a new wiki with your database, see if it works and then import the xar file. Keep the old installation, just in case, if you want to tinker around with it. Harikrishnan Hammonds,John,ST LOUIS,Engineering wrote:
It sounds like you don't have the mysql database driver in your classpath. This is a separate download from the web.

After installing both my servlet container and Mysql database, I am still not able to log into xwiki. I edited the necessary files and am positive that Tomcat 5.5 is configured correctly. I can get the apache page but when I click xwiki home I get the error listed below. One strange thing is when I comment the mysql database back, it allows me to view the xwiki but when I uncomment like the directions say, it does not work. What could be the problem?
Thanks, Tim
