Good morning.. I'm running a little Struts Application on Tomcat 4.1.27 and occassionly the application won't start because of problems connecting to the database.
Is there someway I can I can avoid having this stop my app from running and just catch the error deal with it in the application (like by telling the user "we are technical difficulties, please try again later")? Here's the portion of the Tomcat log that shows the error: 2003-11-21 10:28:11 StandardWrapper[/DB2StrutsDemo:action]: Marking servlet action as unavailable 2003-11-21 10:28:11 StandardContext[/DB2StrutsDemo]: Servlet /DB2StrutsDemo threw load() exception javax.servlet.UnavailableException: Initializing application data source org.apache.struts.action.DATA_SOURCE Googling reveals a lot of people have this problem, and there's a lot of help on solving it. But what if you can't solve it and you just want to deal with it? And I guess the corollary to all this is whether there's some way to "re-start" the datasources later? Just by calling DataSource.getConnection()?
