Apparently, yes. Using a plain Tomcat distribution made this indeed 
easier. Thanks for your help! (And to Chuck, too!)

BasicDataSourceFactory.class where? (Tomcat 5.5, RHEL)

2007-08-01 Thread Juergen Nickelsen

Hello,

for an application I am testing, I have my first contact with Tomcat, 
version 5.5.23 on RHEL 4 update 5, as installed from the package 
tomcat5-5.5.23-0jpp_4rh.3.


What shall I say? It does not work yet. :-/

The main problem seems to be that Tomcat complains on startup about a 
missing class org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory:


WARNING: Failed to register in JMX: javax.naming.NamingException: Could 
not create resource factory instance [Root exception is 
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: 
org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory]


This class is specified as the factory attribute in the Resource 
specification of the application context in Tomcat's server.xml.


I can believe that Java/Tomcat cannot find this class, as I cannot find 
it either -- not in the jar files in /usr/share/tomcat5/common/lib and 
not anywhere else. Still the name suggests that it should be something 
that somehow belongs to Tomcat. I do have the package 
jakarta-commons-dbcp-1.2.1-3jpp_1rh installed, which sounds like a 
promising suspect, but it brings me only 
org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory.class and not the one above.


I'd switch to that just for a try, only it does not work the same way -- 
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: 
org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory.class -- although that 
class is in ../tomcat5/common/lib/[commons-dbcp].jar .


Now I'm puzzled.
Which BasicDataSourceFactory can/should I use?
Why does Java/Tomcat not find the class in [commons-dbcp].jar?
What can I do?

I'd appreciate any help, as I am at a loss now; if this is an FAQ, a 
pointer to the related information, too, of course.


Best regards, Juergen.

I'd strongly recommend to throw that away and use a real Tomcat download
from the Apache website.  The 3rd-party repackaged versions of Tomcat
are notorious for being dysfunctional.
