thanks for the response. I think you are suggesting an approach i have already tried, with confusing results (confusing in that it worked for one web app, but not another!), namely, setting up a global resource under the following server.xml tag: <GlobalNamingResources>
the actual resource tag i use is as follows: <Resource name="jdbc/eplResrc" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"/> and then the resource link is specified as follows: <Context path="/test" docBase="test" debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true"> <ResourceLink name="jdbc/eplResrc" global="jdbc/eplResrc" type="javax.sql.DataSource"/> </Context> Notice that the values for the "name" and "global" parameter in the ResourceLink tag are the same. I notice that in your example they are different. Where does the "global" value get defined? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Adam Hardy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Tomcat Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, September 15, 2003 1:36 PM Subject: Re: setup of global resources, dbcp, mail, etc. > The tricky bit is to remember to put a reference to the global-resource > in the contexts which want to use it: > > <ResourceLink name="jdbc/RealmDB" > global="jdbc/GlobalRealmDB" > type="javax.sql.DataSource"/> > > Adam > > On 09/15/2003 07:03 PM Paul wrote: > > has anyone been successful setting up a global resource under Tomcat 4.1, jdk 1.4 that is accessible to all webapps?
