When I try that, I get a java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException at org.apache.commons.dbcp.PoolingDataSource.getConnection(PoolingDataSource.java:125)
at org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource.getConnection(BasicDataSource.java:329) ... It's thrown during the getConnection(username, password) function. I tried including the username and password parameters in the server.xml file without a value like this: <parameter> <name>username</name> <value></value> </parameter> And also completely excluding the username and password parameters.

However, you do not have to specify a username/password. When you retrieve your DataSource from the "java:comp/env" namespace, you can use getConnection( username, password). If you don't use multiple users for the database, then this may seem impractical. You do need a different "Resource" definition for each database though. -Leo http://www.foopan.ath.cx On Thu, 2002-10-17 at 14:19, Mark Lenz wrote: > I'm trying to set up DB Connection Pooling with Tomcat 4.1.12 and MySQL > 4.0.4.
