Thanks for the feedback Mark. Actually we are using 9ias here also. (I just had JRun running locally since it was smaller on my little machine. Now I have Tomcat also so I really don't need to use both, but thought I'd just try to get it to work ok under JRun). Is there anything 'special' or 'quirky' that I need to know getting this to run under Oracle9ias? I'm actually going to move some struts stuff over there that was working under Tomcat right now and see how it works.
