Ladies and Gentlemen:
Where should I drop a copy of the JDBC Driver .jar file that I need to
connect to MySQL from Tomcat? I understand there are a variety of
classloaders, invoked on a number of different directories. Obviously, I
could just dump it into %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\ext, but what if I wish to
restrict access to the Database?
So I suppose this is 2 questions:
1. If I want all of my web applications to have access to the .jar file,
where's it go?
2. If I want only one of my web application to have access, where's it go?

Hello Garrett, the tc docs says the $CATALINA_HOME/lib is global to tc webapps (after tc restart). this works me running oracle db 9.2 the oracle jar that contains the JDBC drivers is in the directory i mentioned and db access is available from all the webapps. i control user access from oracle and not from tc because oracle has more control over user access. i don't know what mySQL offers in terms of user access controls. hope this helps, david.
