Is your JDBC driver in the classpath in the production machine.

Send the stacktrace - it will give me a better idea of where your problem is?

Hi all,

I have a strange bug which I can't seem to pin down. Using Java 1.4.1 I
have a simple app that polls a MS SQL server for data using a stored
procedure here is my code:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
----

ResultSet rs = null;

try
{
        CallableStatement cs = conn.prepareCall("{call
GetUserByName(?)}");
        cs.setString(1, name);
        rs = cs.executeQuery();
}
catch(SQLException ex)
{
        System.out.println("ERROR getting user");
        System.out.println(ex.getMessage());
}

while(rs.next())
{
// Do Stuff
}
rs.close();

------------------------------------------------------------------------
----

On my development machine it functions without any problems. However on
my production machine which I am convinced is identical the program
crashes with a Java.NullPointerException error.

Any ideas?

Regards,
Jarrod
