No, I have commons-dbcp.1.2.2 jar in the lib directory of all of my web app as well.
Should I remove the commons-dbcp1.2.2.jar from the web apps and put the jar files in the common/lib directory. The jar files are: commons-dbcp-1.2.2 commons-pool-1.3 I assume that the naming-factory-dbcp.jar that comes with tomcat under common/lib do not include the above jars. Thanks again.
