Hi Mark,
Thanks for your reply. I changed my Context.xml like this, <Context path="/dbtest" docBase="dbtest.war" debug="0" reloadable="true" crossContext="true"> <Resource name="jdbc/myDB" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource" driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/javatest" username="mojo" password="jojo" maxActive="20" maxIdle="10" maxWait="-1"/> but still I get the same error. My log file shows this, Jan 11, 2007 2:35:59 PM org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11BaseProtocol pause INFO: Pausing Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-8080 Jan 11, 2007 2:36:00 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService stop INFO: Stopping service Catalina Jan 11, 2007 2:36:00 PM org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11BaseProtocol destroy INFO: Stopping Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-8080 Jan 11, 2007 2:36:00 PM org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener lifecycleEvent INFO: Failed shutdown of Apache Portable Runtime Jan 11, 2007 2:36:03 PM org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener lifecycleEvent INFO: The Apache Tomcat Native library which allows optimal performance in production environments was not found on the java.library.path: C:\JDK 1.5.0_06\bin;.;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\apache2triad\bin;C:\apache2triad\perl\bin;C:\apache2triad\php\bin;C:\apache2triad\mysql\bin;C:\apache2triad\opssl\bin;C:\apache2triad\python\bin;C:\apache2triad\pgsql\bin;C:\JDK 1.5.0_06\bin;;C:\apache2triad\bin;C:\apache2triad\perl\bin;C:\apache2triad\php\bin;C:\apache2triad\mysql\bin;C:\apache2triad\opssl\bin;C:\apache2triad\python\bin;C:\apache2triad\pgsql\bin;C:\Sun\SDK\bin;C:\JDK 1.5.0_06\bin;C:\ANT\apache-ant-1.6.5\bin; Jan 11, 2007 2:36:03 PM org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11BaseProtocol init INFO: Initializing Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-8080 Jan 11, 2007 2:36:03 PM org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina load INFO: Initialization processed in 875 ms Jan 11, 2007 2:36:03 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService start INFO: Starting service Catalina Jan 11, 2007 2:36:03 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngine start INFO: Starting Servlet Engine: Apache Tomcat/5.5.20 Jan 11, 2007 2:36:03 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHost start INFO: XML validation disabled Jan 11, 2007 2:36:04 PM org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig deployWAR INFO: Deploying web application archive bank.war Jan 11, 2007 2:36:04 PM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader validateJarFile INFO: validateJarFile(C:\Tomcat 5.5\apache-tomcat-5.5.20\webapps\bank\WEB-INF\lib\servlet.jar) - jar not loaded.
