Tomcat expects to have full control over its own classpath. You're better-off putting those libraries under TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib, or TOMCAT_HOME/shared/lib. See http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/class-loader-howto.html for the details regarding the differences between these two. > 2.

Sometimes this message is emitted when a class tries to use log4j before it is initialized (even though it will eventually be properly initialized). > Also, I don't see any output although my log4j is configured to output > messages. That's unfortunate. I've never had good luck with log4j's automatic configuration based on a properties file that it can find. Note that in order for log4j to find the file in your classpath automagically, you'll need to have log4j.jar in your webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory... if you try to "share" your log4j library, nothing will work the way you expect if you have more than one application using log4j. Your best bet is to deploy log4j separately for each webapp. I usually have a ServletContextListener that does something like this at startup, along with anything else I need done at startup: // Trigger loading of the log4j.properties file from the classpath. new PropertyConfigurator(); > 3.

Getting logging to work will certainly help debug this issue. Is it hanging on the first db access? That could be anything. Is is hanging on the second? It might be because you aren't properly cleaning up after your connections (returning them to a connection pool?). Your log4j.properties file looks good. Are you sure it's getting into your webapp's WEB-INF/classes directory? If you develop in one directory and then copy into your deploy directory, it's possible you may have missed that particular file. Just checking. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFw9Se9CaO5/Lv0PARAsEOAJ0akhGW0wk6dPN60So85cpRenGSKQCaAn3n 4UH3g+bm6xNCxsQwTp9Y7VA= =82Au -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
