Hi Pavel, I used the db connection in struts-config.xml file initially but due to some reasons my app is not working, so I thought of configuring connection pool myself. So this is what I have done.
Please tell me if there is a better way of doing this and if so how?

If you are creating a new instance of connection pool before working with database, there's obviously nothing pooled at all. You should better use the datasource defined in struts-config.xml or in your environment settings.
