I also had the same problem with that driver. JTDS is a much much better driver. Also look at your connection pooling software, using the commons DBCP is also a little shady. I switched to c3p0 and all the connection problems disappeared. Furthermore with c3p0 when the sql server reboots c3p

JVM. I suggest you use... log4j.appender.stdout.File=${catalina.home}/logs/catalina.out Tomcat creates the "catalina.home" system property at startup. You can use it to reference Tomcat's home directory and then put the file anywhere you want relative to that. Jake Quoting

Getting Tomcat to start my connection pool on startup.

Can anyone tell me how to get tomcat to see my connection pool (DBCP) when tomcat starts? I'm running struts if that helps. I have a Jndi resource set up that i can call from my code. But the pool starts the first time i ask for a connection from the factory. I'd rather it start on startup.
