Hi Guys, I'm trying to access psql from Tomcat5. I got the correct driver because my command-lind test program works fine. So I copied the driver into /usr/share/tomcat5/common/lib, like the documentation says. Then I kept getting
Error occurred: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: Something unusual has occured to cause the driver to fail. Please report this exception. I was told I had a security problem so I added a file called chapter1.policy to /etc/policy.d: // These permissions apply to the chapter1 web application grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/webapps/chapter1/WEB-INF/ classes/-" { permission java.security.AllPermission; }; grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/webapps/chapter1/WEB-INF/ lib/-" { permission java.security.AllPermission; }; // // The permission granted to your JDBC driver grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/common/lib/postgresql- jdbc3-8.1.jar" { permission java.net.SocketPermission "localhost:5432", "connect"; }; I still get the same PSQLException Could anyone send me an example of a security policy that works? I don't understand because 03Catalina.policy contains: // These permissions apply to the servlet API classes // and those that are shared across all class loaders // located in the "common" directory grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/common/-" { permission java.security.AllPermission; }; Thanks.
