configuring realm in web.xml
Hello All, I'm developing a webapplication that needs to authorize and authenticate users looking inside a database. Generally I'll be doing it adding a JDBCRealm inside the server.xml (or in the contex xml file) But I don't have access to these files. I'd like to know if it is possibile to define it inside the web.xml or if it's possibile to add some configuration for the context using the war archive. I looked on the web, and archive but didn't fine anything about it Simone - Simone Chiaretta http://www.piyosailing.com/S www.piyosailing.com/S Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic Life is short, play hard

RE: configuring realm in web.xml
Hi, You can setup a DBCP connection pool wherever you want, but then it's your code running it, not the tomcat built-in code (and thus access is not via JNDI). That's what I do so that I don't rely on the server's connection pooling. You cannot setup a realm completely in web.xml, as a Realm is tomcat-specific and therefore it's declaration and definition must be in a tomcat configuration file, e.g. server.xml or your context XML file if you're using one.

R: configuring realm in web.xml
Thank you... I found out that I can add a context.xml file in the META-INF dir of the war file. And this way they are loaded inside the context of the new deployed context Simone - Simone Chiaretta www.piyosailing.com/S Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic Life is short, play hard -Messaggio originale- Da: Shapira, Yoav [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Inviato: lunedì 5 aprile 2004 16.48 A: Tomcat Users List Oggetto: RE: configuring realm in web.xml Hi, You can setup a DBCP connection pool wherever you want, but then it's your code running it, not the tomcat built-in code (and thus access is not via JNDI).
