Yes, but the database was set up to allow 500 connections, and the pool was 
running dry after 50.  The disturbing part is that the pool was running dry 
in one context and causing other contexts in the same VM to throw 
PoolExhausted exceptions.  I was hoping for a higher degree of seperation 
between contexts than what I got.

Done.  We followed the JNDI datasource reccomendations on the Tomcat web page 
and got bit.  It was my fault for cutting and pasting so verbatim.  The app 
works and releases correctly now.

if, (for whatever reason), one webapp isn't releasing connections, but
is able to keep creating them, then eventually you'll run out of
available connections at the DB end, no?

i'd expend effort determining why the app isn't releasing the
connections, as that's the real problem.

Indeed, they ALL use this same resource name...

thanks for your help.  I think I'll try changing resource names.  A name that 
includes the appName would help prevent collisions, especially on a shared 
server, where I don't own all the apps.

Chris - thanks for the quick response.  We've just moved to tomcat 5.5.  I'm 
using a per-app context XML that looks like this:







My server.xml is untouched from the default distribution of tomcat 5.5.

And yes, I think the term I was searching for was per-context datasources.

You said "per-context JNDI handles", not per-context JNDI DataSources.
Where are you defining your datasource? In context.xml, or in server.xml
with additional, per-context configuration in context.xml?

Can you show us the configuration for your JNDI DataSource, including
the location in whatever file you use? For instance, if you use
server.xml, /where/ you do put the  element?
