Bug#401222: tomcat5.5: Can't load JDBC driver jar when needed (more general problem ?)
Hi, i had the same problem with Tomcat 5.5 on Debian 4.0 Testing. The solution was changing the file and directory owner to the Tomcat user tomcat55. I also added a Tomcat group named tomcat55. chown -R tomcat55:tomcat55 /usr/share/tomcat5.5 chown -R tomcat55:tomcat55 /var/lib/tomcat5.5 After this all webapps work fine.

Hello Marcus, I'm using the package with a lot of data sources and it works fine. Maybe the problem is in the way you define and link the datasource. I use this in my virtual host: Context docBase=/home/app path=/app ResourceLink type=javax.sql.DataSource name=jdbc/mydb global=jdbc/mydb / /Context and the datasource is defined in the server.xml (or via admin interface) in a way similar to this: Resource name=jdbc/mydb type=javax.sql.DataSource driverClassName=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver url=jdbc:mysql://localhost/mydb username=mydb password=mypw maxWait=2 maxIdle=1 maxActive=10 / HTH, Alex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

tag 401222 moreinfo severity 401222 normal thanks I was trying to test a simple webapp using a jndi declared jdbc datasource but i couldn't make it work. It does work for me, at least without security manager, but Tomcat appears to be fragile in this regard, and I had to try a number of things to make it work. Haven't quite figured out what is needed. Please provide more information on your problem, including source code for your webapp, details of configuration changes, and the log messages (especially from /var/log/tomcat5.5/localhost.*.log.)

More specifically the steps I did to test MySQL connectivity were: 1. Download mysql-connector-java 5.0.4 (from the MySQL website) and put the jar file in /usr/share/tomcat5.5/common/lib. 2. Create the database exactly as in the Tomcat example for MySQL: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/jndi-datasource-examples-howto.html 3. Create a test webapp (see below). 4. Run Tomcat without a security manager. (Turning on the security manager requires granting the correct permissions, which should be straightforward.) 5. Deploy the webapp with the Ant manager task: ant install. (You need to create a build.properties file with the required properties for the manager tasks first. See the Tomcat docs.) The test webapp is attached. dbtest.tar.gz Description: application/tgz pgpyGeAqRRXnX.pgp Description: PGP signature

Package: tomcat5.5 Version: 5.5.20-2 Severity: important Hi, I was trying to test a simple webapp using a jndi declared jdbc datasource but i couldn't make it work. After a lot of test and the help of people on #tomcat on freenode, this is what i can say : 1) i am using tomcat 5.5 from unstable, with sun-java5-jdk and mysql5.0, i downloaded the mysql connectorJ 5.0.3 and i put it in /usr/share/tomcat5.5/common/lib like the tomcat website tells me to do. 2) my app works on a server installed by hand with the downloaded binaries from tomcat website. 3) my app doesnt work on debian with and without the security manager 4) i tried to run tomcat with -verbose:class in the CATALINA_OPTS and i can say that the class needed by the DriverManager (com.mysql.jdb.Driver) wasnt loaded, but other classes from common/lib were. I think there is a real problem with the debian tomcat package and a guy from #tomcat said to me the same thing.
