Is it possible to build desktop application whit small data base on linux/ubuntu? I have try eclipse+derby- not work, driver load, but can't connect to db. Eclipse +sqlite- not work too, No suitable driver. For a week from now i trying and can't connect to my db. If some1 have WORKING tutorial how to do this in ubuntu+eclipse, pls share. 1 week google, so please if some1 pass this to help me.

Now im using SQLite, i have load the sqlitejdbc-v051.jar in build path and use

Class.forName("org.sqlite.JDBC").newInstance();

but the result is: No suitable driver found for jdbc:derby:/home/vasil/MYDB

  • Any of those combinations would work, perhaps focus on one technology stack, and pose a *specific* question related to a problem you run into when using that stack. – Perception Mar 01 '13 at 14:02
  • All tutorials finish whit setup the db-ok. Using java to manipulate the data-fail. – Vasil Valchev Mar 01 '13 at 14:09

Have you taken a look at this site? It seems to be a fairly decent walkthrough. Is the db server that you are trying to connect to running and somewhere accessible to your application?

Take a look at this question. It seems to be very similar to yours. I havn't used derby but I have used many other db servers. It sounds like you dont have the driver on your applications classpath.

Also, this tutorial might also be helpful. It shows how to use jdbc to connect to a db.

  • Have u done it? Because i have, and it not work for me. I can accesses the db from explorer, i can put data in, but if i try to make it whit java, no connection to db. – Vasil Valchev Mar 01 '13 at 14:07
  • Just a note, be careful what you write. You dont want to give out information that could allow someone to connect to your db. – John Kane Mar 01 '13 at 14:44
  • Nice, did you take a look at the edit I made to my answer? That explains it pretty well. – John Kane Mar 01 '13 at 14:52
