Hello, I have a web app I have developed under Tomcat 6.0.18 and have added in the dbcp system. As it stands now, It wants to make connections only after the first request to the app. I want the dbcp system to initialize x number of connections on app/server startup. I know if I want to initialize things on startup I include the <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> in the web.xml for the app; which will load the servlet and execute what's in the init method. My question is this: Am I to assume that I need to OPEN and CLOSE x number of connections in the init section of the servlet to load the pool with live connections? Otherwise, I don't see how it will create those connections and load the pool on startup. I seem to be missing or overlooking a method call in the api that will actually load the pool with live connections. Not sure if it makes a difference, but I also have the dbcp being set up in a ServletContextListener.
Any Help is greatly appreciated, have spent to much time on this trying to get it to work like I want or as it's supposed to. Thanks!
