It does, but it uses one contained in the .war itself In container such as Tomcat restarting the app does not result in loosing data, but I guess that in JBoss might... or else, you forced a redeploy and JBoss wiped out the unpacked war and replaced it with the contents of the war, effectively destroying your data directory Cheers Andrea -- ------------------------------------------------------- Ing.
