Hi,

Thanks for your reply, but I am still getting the same error.

[code]

                useNaming="true"/>
</context>
[/code]

I tried putting useNaming in the resource element as well as the context
element, but all to no avail.  It looks like this configuration is not doing
anything.  This file is supposed to be placed in
servlet.war/META-INF/context.xml in which the servlet.war is the actual
file.  Could it also go in /WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/context.xml?

I tried both places, but nothing changed.

Please let me know what else to try.

Thanks,
Walter
