I've got to put 1.1.7 back on my linux box, but 1.2 is working very well -
but I've tended to miss out on the problems.

Now the jdbc6.5-1.1.jar file is infact the 6.5.1 version driver, so as
your java.version string is not correct, you'll have to run your app
like:

    java -Djava.version=1.1 your.class

It's for this reason I changed how this is handled in 6.5.2. However,
because I haven't got 1.1.7 on my development machine (I reinstalled it
recently) I haven't had chance to rebuild the jdbc6.5-1.1.jar file. The
jdbc6.5-1.2.jar file is the new version however.

Tip, although I shouldn't say this (as it's against the works internet
policy, but then I police it anyhow :-) ), cc my work's email address:

    petermount@it.maidstone.gov.uk

That way, I can catch the emails from both here and at work.
