You may find that there are multiple occurences of various classes and
interfaces in your classpath e.g. javax.sql, these cause a
ClassCastException to be thrown when trying to narrow a jndi context.

Subject: AW: DataSource Casting Problem
Hi,
I am also struggling with ConnectionPool
at the moment. I have an Informix DB to connect to.
> It works if I use this:
> org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource ds=
> (org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource)

How is your configuration of the DS in your server.xml?
Did you define a factory for your DataSource,
i.e.
<parameter>
<name>factory</name>
<value>com.informix.jdbcx.IfxDataSourceFactory</value>
</parameter>
for DBCP the value is probably
<value>org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory</value>
Then you can probaly do without defining
> org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource ds
and using DataSource ds instead.
Hope that helps,
Cheers
Holger
