Under what JVM? And platform? I've tested under both Windows (2000) and a couple of current Linux variants both running a current 1.6 VM - same behavior.  5.5.X works, 6.X doesn't. The application instantiates the context, creates and binds it's own JDBC pool, etc. with no relevant edits to any of Tomcat's configuration files. What does it do with exceptions during the context instantiation? They're thrown and reported - er go the exception excerpt included in my post. In 6.0.20, no matter the setting (true/false), we get the same Exception as when useNaming is set to true in 5.5.X: What JVM for 6.0.20? As mentioned earlier, current 1.6 release. Is there a known/related useNaming bug or have I missed some new configuration nugget? Can't say. Can you post your server.xml and relevant <Context> element? http://sdudley.com/files/server.xml http://sdudley.com/files/accountaccess-dev.xml You'll see we use a custom ClassLoader, FileDirContext, and LifecycleListener but like XML JNDI configuration, don't want to make them part of this conversation as they're not relevant. I'm simply trying to find out why useNaming works in 5.5.X and not 6 and hoped someone was already aware of the answer.  In the meantime, I'm already looking through the source and doing some testing on my own.
