jndi datasource resolution

I couldn't use jndi to get my jdbc datasource working with TomcCat 4.01. I went to this mailing list and found no help. I did see a lot of people with my same problem.

The datasource is null.

To fix it, I had to create a context for my application in my server.xml file. In the JNDI HOW-TO, it specifies you can put your resource configuration within the context parameters. However, you also have to put it in the context of your application. This is something that newbies like myself didn't know. Here is an example of my configuration. Hope this saves someone some time.



 <Context path="/postgresql" docBase="postgresql"
         debug="0" privileged="true">

<Resource name="jdbc/ajug" auth="Container"

            type="javax.sql.DataSource"/>

  <ResourceParams name="jdbc/ajug">

    <parameter>

      <name>user</name>

      <value>postgres</value>

    </parameter>

    <parameter>

      <name>password</name>

      <value>postgres</value>

    </parameter>

    <parameter>

      <name>driverClassName</name>

      <value>org.postgresql.Driver</value>

    </parameter>

    <parameter>

      <name>driverName</name>

      <value>jdbc:postgresql://192.168.1.1/ajug</value>

    </parameter>

  </ResourceParams>


        </Context>

Tomcat 4.0.1 and IIS redirection

Posted by Surya Saraff <su...@yahoo.com>.

Hi,
has anyone used isapi_redirect.dll for installing
Tomcat 4.0.1 on IIS Server?  I have jsp files, they
just work fine without me having to install the
redirect dll.  Do I actually need it for Tomcat 4.0.1?
Can anyone guide me?  If it is actually needed, then
how my jsp files are working, and when is it actually
needed.

thanks
surya
