Okay, here's the relevant bit of my server.xml and portal.xml. I really don't think Tomcat is looking in the conf/catalina/myhostname/mycontext.xml

<Engine defaultHost="myhostname" name="Catalina">
<Host appBase="webapps" name="localhost">
</Host>
<Host appBase="C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\hosts\myhostname"
deployOnStartup="false" name="myhostname" unpackWARs="false">
</Host>
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm"
debug="99"
dataSourceName="jdbc/users_global"
userTable="users" userNameCol="user_name" userCredCol="user_pass"
userRoleTable="user_roles" roleNameCol="role_name" digest="MD5"/>
</Engine>


and

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context docBase="mycontext.war" path="">
  <ResourceLink global="jdbc/users_global" name="jdbc/users"
        type="javax.sql.DataSource"/>
</Context>

Ah. Looks like it's just not seeing my context xml file in conf/Catalina, and must be picking the one in the war file up instead.

Is this expected?

Hi,

I've just installed 5.5.7 and after a few teething problem (mainly the logger and a few old resources), everything starts okay, the localhost page is displaying and there are no problems reported in the logs.

But... and I'm sure I'm doing something silly... I'm getting the following error when accessing any db driven pages:

Unable to get connection, DataSource invalid: "org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create JDBC driver of class '' for connect URL 'null'"

Now, I have searched the web and the tomcat newsgroup archives, but it all suggests the MySQL driver in the wrong place. I've put it in tomcat/common/lib, the jre/lib/ext, server/lib, shared/lib, all individually and in all combinations, but it just won't work.

I just copied my 5.0.28 config files over to my 5.5.7 installation, so is there something I would need to change that i haven't read about?

Also, my "root" context doesn't work at root level any more. I've tried a context path of "" and "/", but neither work. Again, has something changed in 5.5?

Any help would be welcome.

TIA

Digby

PS I'll post the log files, but I can't get at the machine at the moment.
