You have the datasource defined globally. You will need to add a resource link to your context that you wish to use it. The contexts cannot see it by default.
Example: <Context ...> <ResourceLink global="jdbc/myoracle" name="jdbc/myoracle" type="javax.sql.DataSource"/> </Context> -----Original Message----- From: Thanigaivel_Murugan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 04, 2006 4:07 AM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: Datasource configuration for Oracle 9i in Tomcat 5.5 Hi, I do not know how to configure datasource in Tomcat 5.5 for Oracle 9i. I tried like this... 1. Server.xml configuration: <!-- Global JNDI resources --> <GlobalNamingResources> <!-- Test entry for demonstration purposes --> <Environment name="simpleValue" type="java.lang.Integer" value="30"/> <Resource name="jdbc/myoracle" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource" driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver" url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@TESTSERVER:1521:TESTDB" username="scott" password="tiger" maxActive="20" maxIdle="10" maxWait="-1"/> </GlobalNamingResources> 2. Test.jsp Context initContext = new InitialContext(); Context envContext = (Context)initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env"); DataSource ds = (DataSource)envContext.lookup("jdbc/myoracle"); Connection conn = ds.getConnection(); Output: javax.servlet.ServletException: Cannot create JDBC driver of class '' for connect URL 'null' Can anyone knows the solution? - Regards Thanigai DISCLAIMER: This email (including any attachments) is intended for the sole use of the intended recipient/s and may contain material that is CONFIDENTIAL AND PRIVATE COMPANY INFORMATION.
