RE: Datasource - OK in app context - Fails in Global context
I have it in both places (common/lib and WEB-INF/lib), and (for other -unrelated- reasons) also in the JDK's lib/ext folder. I did know the driver would not be visible to the connection pool unless it is in common/lib. I could remove the extra copy of the driver from WEB-INF/lib without ill-effects. -Original Message- From: ext Keshav Sarin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 12, 2004 11:26 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Datasource - OK in app context - Fails in Global context On a different topic, do you have the database driver under WEB-INF/lib or common/lib?

Re: Datasource - OK in app context - Fails in Global context
So, could someone summarize for me the different ways of creating a JDBC DataSource in Tomcat? I will start the summary, so that it's easier to correct/complete. Please fill in the gaps ;-) 1. Have the DataSource defined in your application's context. That way, if you have two apps, you have to copy the datasource definition from one to the other. Two connection pools will be created. 2. Have the DataSource defined in DefaultContext. If you have two apps, you need to ... ... connection pool(s) will be created. 3. Have the DataSource defined in GlobalNamingResources. If you have two apps, you need to ResourceLink in both contexts. ... connection pool(s) will be created. Thank you very much.

There's a catch though In TC 4.x, if you put a app context entry in the server.xml, the app doesn't get reloaded even if the war is overwritten or the app directory is deleted or the server is restarted.
