How about the original question.  It seems we got off subject here.  Can
someone please read the original post and see if you have a solution.

Thanks.

Hans,

   Thanks very much for your reply.  I think it might still be related,
because the null pointer exception I got is from
DelegatingConnection.close().  However, I never thought it's bugs of
dbcp or Oracle driver, since if I setup the datasource manually
(following the example code in DBCP website), I have no problem to get
database connection.  I couldn't figure out why when Tomcat initiated
the action of configuring the dbcp resource, it will fail.  Anyway,
thanks again for your input.  It's encouraging to know someone else also
works on the similar problem.  Thanks again!

apply to your problem... sorry ...
hmm perhaps I should go get some sleep....
