I have an application in Tomcat 5.0.30 that we are trying to get to use
JDBC through JNDI.
I am trying to follow along with
akarta-tomcat-5.0.30/webapps/tomcat-docs/jndi-datasource-examples-howto.
html.
I have setup the context.xml
<Context debug="4"
docBase="C:/Java/eclipse-europa/europa-workspace/bop-med/web"
path="/bop-med" reloadable="true"
workDir="work\Catalina\localhost\bop-med">
<Resource name="jdbc/medical"
type="javax.sql.DataSource"
password="password"
driverClassName="com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver"
maxIdle="2"
maxWait="5000"
validationQuery="select * from sysibm.SYSDUMMY1"
username="user"
url="jdbc:db2://server:50000/db"
maxActive="4"/>
</Context>
And I have setup the web.xml with
<resource-ref>
<description>DB Connection</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/medical</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
When I call the following code
initCtx = new InitialContext();
Context envCtx = (Context) initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env");
DataSource ds = (DataSource) envCtx.lookup("jdbc/medical");
Connection conn = ds.getConnection();
System.out.println("DB Version : "
+
conn.getMetaData().getDatabaseMajorVersion());
conn.close();
I get the following error
org.apache.commons.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create JDBC driver
of class '' for connect URL 'null'
