David Johnson resolved ROL-633.
-------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Addressed long ago...

This resource refs for database and mail connections remain commented out in the Roller web.xml because we don't need them in the simple 5-minute install and because, even for the JNDI based config,Tomcat does not need them to be present.

Folks that deploy on other platforms will have to uncomment these refs.

>             Project: Roller
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Configuration & Settings
>    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
>         Environment: Tomcat 5.0
>            Reporter: Ken Blackler
>            Assignee: Roller Unassigned
>            Priority: Minor
>
> There is an unnecessary resource reference in web.xml that prevents roller from being deployed at the root web app under tomcat 5.0. 
> <!-- TOMCAT RESOURCE REF -->
>     <resource-ref>
>             <res-ref-name>jdbc/rollerdb</res-ref-name>
>             <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
>             <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
>     </resource-ref>
> This resource is defined in the conf/Catalina/localhost/roller.xml file. 
> This entry is not needed and it can be safely commented out. Indeed, for the resource mail/Session is already commented out. 
> Without this reference, roller works fine as:
> <Context path="/roller" docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/roller" debug="0">
> or at root, such as:
> <Context path="" docBase="${catalina.home}/mywebapps/roller" debug="0">
> Note: If you want to run it at root, you have to move it out of the webapps directory to prevent tomcat's default loader from loading it without the resources.
