Thanks for the help. I just tried it and it still does work. Here is the exact content of my current server.xml and my context.xml
Server.xml: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN"> <Listener className="org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener" SSLEngine="on" /> <Listener className="org.apache.catalina.core.JasperListener" /> <Listener className="org.apache.catalina.mbeans.ServerLifecycleListener" /> <Listener className="org.apache.catalina.mbeans.GlobalResourcesLifecycleListener" /> <GlobalNamingResources> <Resource name="UserDatabase" auth="Container" type="org.apache.catalina.UserDatabase" description="User database that can be updated and saved" factory="org.apache.catalina.users.MemoryUserDatabaseFactory" pathname="conf/tomcat-users.xml" /> <Resource name="jdbc/workout_logger" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource" maxActive="100" maxIdle="30" maxWait="10000" username="user" password="password" driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/workout_logging?autoReconnect=true"/> </GlobalNamingResources> <Service name="Catalina"> <Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" connectionTimeout="20000" redirectPort="8443" /> <Connector port="8009" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443" /> <Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="localhost"> <Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm" resourceName="UserDatabase"/> <Host name="localhost" appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false"> </Host> </Engine> </Service> </Server> Context.xml <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <Context> <WatchedResource>WEB-INF/web.xml</WatchedResource> <ResourceLink name="jdbc/workout_logger" global="jdbc/workout_logger"/> </Context> I check and my db user "user" has full access to the DB it's trying to use. Is it possible that I am missing a library or something in the classpath of tomcat? I already have the mysql connector library ( I had my DB connections working fine without datasources before, but I am trying to switch to using datasources).
