Hi, here is some more informations about JNDI, PostgreSQL, etc:
I wrote, I had the same problem, and here is my solution: Create in your development environment (Eclipse, NetBeans, Midnight Commander...) the META-INF/context.xml with the following content: <Context> <Resource ....... /> </Context> Add to your WEB-INF/web.xml the <resource-ref /> tag. Create WAR file containing all the required files (incl. META-INF/context.xml!!!) and deplay it. Tomcat, during deploy, looks for the META-INF/context.xml and copies it into ${CATALINA_HOME}/conf/Catalina/localhost/[app_name].xml. Here is my files: META-INF/context.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Context> <Resource auth="Container" description="Test database connection" name="jdbc/testDB" type="javax.sql.DataSource" password="test" driverClassName="org.postgresql.Driver" maxIdle="20" maxWait="5000" validationQuery="" username="test" url="jdbc:postgresql://127.0.0.1:5432/test" maxActive="20" /> </Context> === WEB-INF/web.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app id="WebApp_ID" version="2.4" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd"> <display-name>Pokus</display-name> <servlet> <description></description> <display-name>Test</display-name> <servlet-name>Test</servlet-name> <servlet-class>test.Test</servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>Test</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> <welcome-file-list> <welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file> <welcome-file>index.htm</welcome-file> <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file> <welcome-file>default.html</welcome-file> <welcome-file>default.htm</welcome-file> <welcome-file>default.jsp</welcome-file> </welcome-file-list> <resource-ref> <description> Resource reference to a factory for java.sql.Connection instances that may be used for talking to a particular database that is configured in the server.xml file. </description> <res-ref-name>jdbc/testDB</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <res-auth>Container</res-auth> <res-sharing-scope> Unshareable </res-sharing-scope> </resource-ref> </web-app> === Hope to helps you!
