Hi Chris,
Thanks for the info about the struts 1.3. If you didnt say that, i would pack
everything up and deploy on a school server for my demo next week. So now I
gotta change back to container-managed dataSource. As I said, i did declare the
tomcat dataSource in server.xml and WEB-INF/web.xml. As you said, i should
write a class which extend the struts Action class then overwrite the
getDatasource() method in such a way that it gonna return the datasource that i
have declared in server.xml and web.xml, but how can i access the
container-managed datasource from my custom action class?
My server.xml has:
<Host name="localhost" appBase="webapps"
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"
xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
<Context path="/Core1" docBase="Core1" debug="5"
reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
<Resource name="jdbc/TestDB" auth="Container"
type="javax.sql.DataSource"
maxActive="100" maxIdle="30" maxWait="10000"
username="myname" password="mypass"
driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/core?autoReconnect=true"/>
</Context>
</Host>
And my WEB-INF/web.xml is
<resource-ref>
<description>DB connection</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/TestDB</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
Hope you can give some suggestion
Thanks in advance

This appears to be a Struts method, not anything from the servlet
specification. You need to be very specific when you quote things like
this.
http://struts.apache.org/1.2.9/api/org/apache/struts/action/Action.html#getDataSource(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)

Exactly. If you are using Tomcat-managed DataSources, you cannot use
Struts's Action.getDataSource method. You will have to write your own.
If you have a base action from which all your existing actions extend,
you can simply override getDataSource and implement it correctly for a
JNDI-based DataSource.
Better yet, separate your database queries from your Struts actions, and
forget Action.getDataSource ever existed.

You should NOT do this. Struts has abandoned DataSource management as of
version 1.3 in favor of container-managed DataSources (as it should have
been all along). You should get Tomcat-based DataSource management
working. We will help you, though I'm guessing that this thread is over
and nobody will read this follow-up. :(
