Hi,
I am new to Servoy and I am trying to connect to a postgres db by means of a servlet. However, when I load the servlet I get the following error:

The code I used to establish the db connection is as follows

Any thoughts on how I could make this happen to work is highly appreciated!
Thanks in advance…
Hi,
Can you explain why you want to make a connection from a servlet? Since you are new to Servoy did you read this section in the documentation? https://wiki.servoy.com/display/Serv7/Managing+Database+Connections
Hi, thanks for your reply.
The servlet is a connector for some client side JS Dhtml components, which works fine for me , in Servoy. However, on the server side the servlet should load and update the data, against the client side dhtml component, which I cannot manage to get it working, is this possible at all in Servoy?
Thanks.

This is not the way to go, Servoy-clients are not aware of any data changes you do directly on the DB.
I think you’re far better of setting up a RESTful web service and consume these from clients.
Have a look here: https://wiki.servoy.com/display/DOCS/RE … b+Services
or here: https://www.servoyforge.net/projects/ve … /WebClient
These are ready to go (free) components (first one is shipped by default, 2nd is easy install)
Hope this helps.
