FDS does not connect to a database. Instead you have to useeither HTTP, WebService, Java POJO, Java Spring, Java Hibernate,ColdFusion, or PHP. With that said, you will need an applicationserver as well, FDS is installed on application server. You can useTomcat (this is what I use), JBoss, JRun, etc.

Peter -Thanks for the reply. I no longer get the error message, butI also no longer get an data. In fact it doesn't even look like theserver is getting called.

Although probably not supported, this should work no problem.Just put the flex.war, flex-admin.war, and samples.war in yourtomcat webapps directory and restart tomcat. Please let us knowwhat you find out.

When you installed Flex 2, did you have a previous version offlex installed? If so, uninstall everything, make sure that yourdirectories are clean including your eclipse plugin and featuresdirectories and reinstall.
