I'm using tomcat 4. I ended up defining the db in the server.xml using an example I found(see my Thanks post).

I'll teel you how I use it, so I hope help you ;) 1. I don't define the Connections inside Context Elements on server.xml. Instead I use a <appname>.xml located at TOMCAT_HOME/conf/localhost, its's a recommendation: "Please note that for tomcat 5.x, unlike tomcat 4.x, it is NOT recommended to place <Context> elements directly in the server.xml file. Instead, put them in the META-INF/context.xml directory of your WAR file or the conf directory as described above. " source: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/context.html 2. Axis is a Tomcat WebApp, so you need to change Axis WebApp config files: web.xml and axis.xml (as described above...) in order to make DataSources avaiable only for this WebApp. 3. Larry is correct ;) If you define a DataSource available to all WebApps (I believe in this case it must be defined at server.xml) it must work.... Take a look at: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/jndi-datasource-examples-how to.html I don't know if this solves your problem..... if doens't please send more info ;) bye !!
