well, I couldn't get a Realm to function when the DataSource it needed was defined in the same Context as the Realm itself.
I've made it work by declaring the datasource resource in the 'global naming resources' section of server.xml, and the realm directly under the 'engine' element. And then in my host, I use a resourcelink to reference (and rename) the globalresource to what my application is expecting. still puzzled why I couldn't get the other setup to work. > -----Original Message----- > From: GB Developer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2005 9:56 AM > To: 'Tomcat Users List' > Subject: RE: Trouble finding Datsource Resource with DataSourceRealm > > > I should have mentioned, I have a ContextListener that contains the > following: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > initCtx = new InitialContext(); > envCtx = (Context) initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env"); > > logger.info("*** loading Data Source"); > try { > ds = (DataSource) envCtx.lookup("sql/DataSource"); > application.setAttribute("services.datasource", ds); > logger.info("*** DataSource loaded @ services.datasource"); > } catch (NamingException ne) { > logger.fatal("ERROR loading DataSource: ", ne); > } > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > And I get both 'info' messages.
