Mike,
You do not need to post your question specifically to 3 different people. It's all on one list, just ask one question. Not only that, but you seem to have hijacked two threads in the process. Create a new thread for a new question. Does a post about JSP's or a post about the Tomcat SecurityManager sound anything like they have to do with databases? I don't think so, and it ought to be obvious even to the most newbie or newbies. You ought to know that you risk being ignored if you continue this behavior on the list. Yes, we all understand you have a problem that needs solving, but you are less, not more, likely to get an answer with this line of questioning.

Hi Benjamin, Im sorry to bother you, but Im desperate and you seem pretty knowledgeable re Tomcat..... Im using the Windows Installer version 5.0.27......
Could I ask you a question, I added my application thru the Application Manager... went to the Company Logon screen, which opens MySql database, updates it, and closes it..... All successfully..... I then go to the User Login screen, which does the same functions as above, open, update, close and on my Open database, I get a 08002 (connection name in use)..... Any subsequent call gives an 08000.....
By backing out to Tomcat manager, stopping and restarting the application, seems to take care of the 08002, but then it reappears right after you do an initial open/close...... Is there anything at all that you are aware of, that Tomcat keeps a resource open????? On my close, I do a COMMIT followed by DISCONNECT ALL...... Im so sorry for bothering you.....
By the way, Im running Servlets...... Do you have any idea what my problem may be, Im totally new to this type of programming, and extremely frustrated, cause my App works fine in CGI format under a different Web Browser, only problem is, CGI is extremely slow...... I need it to work in Servlets....
Thank You for any help you may be able to offer me... Mike

Where did you add the -security? Did you move the catalina.policy file?
System.getSecurityManager() returning null is generally taken to mean that the JVM is not running under the manager at all: this is obvious, I know, but it also indicates the converse. So if you start a security manager up, the system's behavior will change. In fact, I never considered the trouble one could cause calling setSecurityManager at runtime when there was no manager in effect (as opposed to trying to override an existing policy, for which there's a permission check).
The AccessControlException means that after you started the manager, some bit of code tried to get its ContextClassLoader, and it did not have the appropriate runtime permissions. Are the policy file entries you indicated are all that is in your policy file?

I'm trying to get an application I have to use the SecurityManager object from Tomcat.
I've added the -security to my startup so that it is enabled.
When I do a System.getSecurityManager() it returns a null object.
If I try and create my own SecurityManager and set it via System.setSecurityManager, I get: 004-08-26 14:07:47 StandardContext[/clinicalTrials]Exception starting filter SessionFilter java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.lang.RuntimePermission getClassLoader) at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(AccessControlContext. java :269) at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(AccessController.java:401 ) at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(SecurityManager.java:524) at java.lang.Thread.getContextClassLoader(Thread.java:1182) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterConfig.getFilter(ApplicationFi lter Config.java:207) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterConfig.setFilterDef(Applicatio nFil terConfig.java:308) at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterConfig.<init>(ApplicationFilte rCon fig.java:79)
The only info I have added to the catalina.policy file is: grant { permission javax.security.auth.AuthPermission "createLoginContext"; permission javax.security.auth.AuthPermission "doAs"; permission javax.security.auth.AuthPermission "doAsPrivileged"; permission javax.security.auth.AuthPermission "modifyPrincipals"; permission javax.security.auth.AuthPermission "getSubject"; };
grant principal com.ptilabs.commons.jaas.authentication.ldap.LDAPPrincipal "_app_Clinical_Trials" { permission com.ptilabs.commons.jaas.authorization.URLPermission "/clinicalTrials/app/*"; };
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?
I have a command line version for testing that works fine. It is when I try and do things under Tomcat that everything blows up.
Thanks!
