The actual DataSourceFactory, as defined in the ServerModule is DelegatingDataSourceFactory: binder.bind(DataSourceFactory.class).to(DelegatingDataSourceFactory.class); The point of which is that the app (or even a deployer) should have an easy way to override a factory name specified in XML. cayenne.jdbc.* properties are of course intended for DelegatingDataSourceFactory/PropertyDataSourceFactory. Are you using these properties for something else? Andrus
