Hello, I have tried this at Tomcat 6 with success:
1. Define a GlobalResource in Tomcats conf/server.xml: <Resource name="SystemUsers" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource" username="sa" password="" driverClassName="org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver" url="jdbc:derby:${devel.server.home}/databases/users;create=true" /> 2. Create a ResourceLink in the context.xml of Archiva and Continuum: <ResourceLink name="jdbc/users" global="SystemUsers" type="javax.sql.DataSource"/> Now you can restart Tomcat. The UserDatabase will be started once and every Webapp having a ResourceLink can reuse the database. To avoid unauthorized access to this database it is useful to run a seperate Tomcat instance for continuum and archiva. An alternative to this is the use of a DB-Server (Oracle, MSSQL, MySQL,...).
