Very, very late to the party. BIA/BCP/RTO/RPO/audit/yuck. Victor, Mark's answer was spot on, and the documentation for Tomcat 8.0 gives more or less explicit instructions. Skimming over the thread, I don't see where you ever told folks what version of Tomcat you were using (I could be wrong). Using Mark's answer, I immediately went to the following page: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/default-servlet.html Read that documentation, especially where it concerns gzip. If you need an example as to how to set gzip=true, look at the other init-param nodes in the web.xml included on that page. Seriously, I know you don't want to hear this but read the documentation. Yes it's sometimes a bit dense (as in lots of information, few words). However, it is for the most part very fine documentation. Where it's not, patches are welcome (yes, I have one long overdue). If you come back and say, "Here's what I read, here's what I understood, here's what I tried, here's what happened, here's what I wanted to happen", then people are much more likely to help. In short (don't laugh, folks), demonstrate that you've put at least as much effort into solving the problem as those people taking time to help you find the answer. Oh, and start out by reading this: http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html If not, then most likely you'll wear out your welcome. It sounds like you have already worn out your welcome for JDBC. . . . just my (beleaguered) 2 cents /mde/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJU/3ySAAoJEEFGbsYNeTwtjNIIAJAODTPlhgLjiN6JgiGcNWVU bhNVrWn3VdO+WmDsXxLFAt2Gux8zbno2UL16x2VnYymqtXFt5+GqaaBrCtLla0Mu 1kP1CKHr1NEfvGta3X4Tf1bOiS9VfMyystZh+rLrkw98qL5eQdfakKWtnMKpQgp1 ih+IwfZ1bozEE4F+18pM3nhJMtiuMiQsuFWMPLe0ieIDE22gF4mZHGZb6Z4QfMIs JLElFLkHTTIY6zAz30ZrkOTx+OE3q4ULEpCsfplXQOogoraVgHMuzk0PGAYTNldV 9hkAvrqjXDhCCQ7Cnc2Z4NyUQ07vawWSmoR22jnSIBAgfsYHUj3gGmMoUOJAElE= =t6am -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
