I can do the following: DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver()); Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@holl302h:1521:ORDT","ordl ine","junk"); So I assume that I have the right oracle drivers etc, I just don't have JNDI or dbcp setup right.

I seem to remember having this problem last time I played with it several moths ago but I don't remember what I did to fix it. I am running Tomcat 5.0.16 with JVM version 1.4.2_03-b02 on windows 2000. I am trying to connect to an Oracle 8.1.7.1.0 database. I have placed the ojdbc14.jar file in common\lib The error I am getting is javax.servlet.ServletException: Cannot create JDBC driver of class '' for connect URL 'null', cause: No suitable driver I am using oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver because that's what the docs said, but I seem to recall that was not correct. I just can't find anything that tells me what other driver I should be using. My server.xml file has . . . <Resource name="jdbc/ordt" type="javax.sql.DataSource"/> . . . </ResourceParams> <ResourceParams name="jdbc/ordt"> <parameter> <name>validationQuery</name> <value>select * from dual</value> </parameter> <parameter> <name>url</name> <value>jdbc:oracle:thin:@holl302h:1521:ORDT</value> </parameter> <parameter> <name>password</name> <value>password</value> </parameter> <parameter> <name>maxActive</name> <value>4</value> </parameter> <parameter> <name>maxWait</name> <value>5000</value> </parameter> <parameter> <name>driverClassName</name> <value>oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</value> </parameter> <parameter> <name>username</name> <value>username</value> </parameter> <parameter> <name>maxIdle</name> <value>2</value> </parameter> </ResourceParams> . . . web.xml looks like <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd"> <web-app> <display-name>Metrology Lab</display-name> <description> First Source Metrology Lab </description> <resource-ref> <description>Oracle Datasource example</description> <res-ref-name>jdbc/ordt</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <res-auth>Container</res-auth> </resource-ref> </web-app> my code looks like Context initContext = new InitialContext(); Context envContext = (Context)initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env"); DataSource ds = (DataSource)envContext.lookup("jdbc/ordt"); Connection conn = ds.getConnection(); Thanks for any help, Jon Drnek ***************************************************************** The information in this email and in any attachments is confidential and intended solely for the attention and use of the named addressee(s).
