hi, i am using Oracle 9i as my datasource and have declared it in my struts-config as follows:
<data-source key="DB" type="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleConnectionPoolDataSource"> <set-property property="autoCommit" value="false"/> <set-property property="description" value="DB_Connection_Pool"/> <set-property property="driverClass" value="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"/> <set-property property="maxCount" value="5"/> <set-property property="minCount" value="1"/> <set-property property="password" value="password"/> <set-property property="url" value="jdbc:oracle:thin:@ip-of-server:1521:ORACLE1"/> <set-property property="user" value="user"/> </data-source> however, when i come to use this datasource in my struts actions, it gives me the following error: Invalid Oracle URL specified: OracleDataSource.makeURL im accessing the datasource in my actions like so (i use the same thing with an SQLServer datasource and it works fine): DataSource dataSource = (DataSource)servlet.getServletContext().getAttribute("DB"); also, i have my oracle driver jar in the commons folder in tomcat - could this be the cause Any help would be much appreciated! claire
