My javax.servlet classes & oracle drivers were in a file called
classes12.zip
I created a jar of this & placed it into my WEB-INF/lib as classes.jar.
classes.zip is the file listed in my classpath.
I suspect that this is the issue too - is there a naming convention here
i'm not adhering to?
Thanks

Hi,
are you sure that you have put the jdbc drivers for oracle in
the common/lib directory of tomcat .... somehitng tells me that there is
an issue with the JDBC driver jars .... but I may be totally wrong ....

still getting a Cannot create resource instance error, i have pasted the

Cannot create resource instance

for some excellent information on setting up this stuff. I don't
think
you have to spec a resource factory as the built-in one for
datasources
is a slightly refactored (package rename only) version of DBCP. Also,
the JDBC driver needs to be stored in common/lib of the tomcat
installation. Lastly, unless you are directly using the commons-dbcp
package or the commons-pool package in your code, the
commons-dbcp-xx.xx.jar and commons-pool.jar are not necessary in
WEB-INF.

Please can someone advise me what I need to configure? I get no
