Re: Cannot Solve "jdbc is not bound is this Context" problem

[Kwok Peng Tuck]

If you copy the DB2 driver into $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib , then it 
should be a jar rather than a zip or a tar file.
I think you should also change driverName to url.

WebSphere. So I guess that it some configuration that we are missing.
We are trying to configure tomcat (4.1.24) to do a jndi lookup of a
DataSource which is a db2 jdbc app driver.
The Tomcat server.xml had a sample jdbc configuration which was modified to
the following...


user
password
driverClassName
COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver
driverName
jdbc:db2:SWPPDB2

The web.xml includes


 jdbc/SURESWIT
 javax.sql.DataSource
 Container
 
The Java code performs the following :-

if (ds == null)
{
try {
  Context ctx = new InitialContext();
 ds = (javax.sql.DataSource) ctx.lookup(("jdbc/SURESWIT");
 ctx.close();
}
 catch (Exception e)
   {
 logger.text( IRecordType.TYPE_ERROR_EXC,
   className,
   "init(ServletConfig)",
  "Naming service exception:" + e.toString());
  }
}
When the above code runs it throws the following exception
init(ServletConfig) Naming service
exception:javax.naming.NameNotFoundException:
Name jdbc is not bound in this Context
I have copied the DB2 jdbc driver file to $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib (I
copied it both as .zip and .tar as some web resources suggested tomcat would
only recognise it as .tar)
ANY and I mean ANY help would be greatly appreciated. Even if it's to say it
doesn't work with tomcat.
Many thanks Alan

Of course I did mean .jar
