Hi Eric,

Yes, it looks like the driver is missing. To make it available to Tomcat container you need to put it in "$TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib". I don't recall if this location is Tomcat version specific, so if this doesn't work, you can try other common "lib" folders under $TOMCAT_HOME.

Thanks but it didn't seem to change anything yet. Hmmm...

The error we are getting is "java.sql.SQLException: org.postgresql.Driver"... I wonder if this means it didn't find the driver ?

Thanks,

Eric

Hi, Folks

Up until now we have been using the memory realm to control user
access to our main application.

The numbers of users is going to go up so we need to keep that info
somewhere and in the database seems like a good place.

We are having some difficulty configuring a JDBCRealm, getting the
error you see at the bottom of this email but it occurs to me:

All our other database access is via cayenne. Should I be doing
something more cayenne-ish rather than using the JDBCRealm?


Thanks!

Still having trouble connecting through tomcat's JDBC REALM.

I am trying to use the tomcat JDBC REALM for user log-in.
Here is the relevent portion of my server.xml file:


      driverName="org.postgresql.Driver"

connectionURL="jdbc:postgres://localhost/PAX_2005?
user=paxlogin&password=paxlogin"
        serTable="loginuser" userNameCol="emailaddress"
userCredCol="password"
   userRoleTable="loginrole" roleNameCol="role" />


HERE 'loginuser' and 'loginrole' are views in my postgres database.
They are UNION queries that combine 3 tables of possible users,
and distinguish them with different roles.

'paxlogin' is a user in this database who has 'select' privileges
on these two views, and no other previleges.

When I start tomcat, I get the following output, which essentially
says that tomcat got an SQL Exception when it tired to connect.

I would probably be able to solve this easier if I could see the
text of the SQLException that is the 'root cause' of the error.

Is this an authentication failure on the paxlogin user ?
Is somthing wrong with the Views, or the privileges ?
