What do the logs say?
Have you tried connecting to MySQL outside of Tomcat?
Does that work?
Can you get the page to display without the JDBC stuff in it?

I'm stepping through the example Professional Apache Tomcat 5 book by Wrox in
Chapter 14 - I have set up the mysql database and confirmed it works and set up
the tomcat server and confirmed that I can see my index.jsp page. When I try to
go to http://localhost:8070/jsp-examples/wroxjdbc/JDBCTest.jsp
I get a standard The page cannot be displayed page.
I've included all my steps below. Anyone that can help is most appreciated. Thanks in advance.....Dave
Steps I have done
1) Created a DB called everycitizen and a table called test with a column called pk. Created user everyuser w/ a password and granted Select privileges to that user.
2) Copied the mysql-connector-java-3.1.12-bin.jar into
$CATALINA_HOME/common/lib.
3)Added the following to the $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml just before the
</Host tag>. Password is blotted out.
<!-- added by DM 2/22/2006 -->
<DefaultContext>
<Resource name="jdbc/WroxTC5" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.Datasource"
driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/everycitizen"
username="everyuser" password="everypass" maxActive="20" maxIdle="30000"
maxWait="100"/>
</DefaultContext>
4) Added the following to the $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/jsp-examples/WEB-INF web.xml file at the bottom just before the </web-app> entry after the last env-entry.
<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/WroxTC5</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
5) Added the JDBCTest.jsp file and the errorpg.jsp file to
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/jsp-examples/wroxjdbc directory. I created the wroxjdbc
folder. The JDBC Test is:
<html>
<head>
<%@ page errorPage="errorpg.jsp"
import="java.sql.*,
javax.sql.*,
java.io.*,
javax.naming.InitialContext,
javax.naming.Context" %>
</head>
<h1>JDBC JNDI Resource Test</h1>
<%
InitialContext initCtx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource)initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/WroxTC5");
Connection conn = ds.getConnection();
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery("select * from test;");
%>
<table width = '600' border='1'>
<tr>
<th align='left'>XXXX</th>
</tr>
<%
while (rset.next())
{
%>
<tr><td> <%=rset.getInt(0)%></td></tr>
<% }
rset.close();
stmt.close();
conn.close();
initCtx.close();
%>
</table>
</html>
and the errorpg is:
<html>
<%@ page isErrorPage="true" %>
<h1> An error has occurred </h1>
<%= exception.getMessage() %>
</html>
