Your post below is very strongly related to the one I posted at about the
same time. ("RE: JNDI DataSource GlobalResources problem").I think I'm right in saying that you can replace a server.xml <Resource> element with a we.xml <resource-ref>, but I don't know that there is an analogous way to migrate <ResourceParams> to web.xml - but I stand to be corrected. In fact if this is possible I'd be keen to hear how! Element ordering in web.xml is a different topic, and one that has passed me by. I'm aware that some docs talk about it, but I've always just slapped things in web.xml in any old order and never had a problem ! Seriously though, I think ordering restrictons were relaxed at some point in the recent past. I've just done a google search but couldn't pinpoint an answer. > -----Original Message----- > From: Allen Holub [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday 28 October 2004 00:10 > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: JNDI Resources in web.xml > > > Dear List, > > During early development (Tomcat 5.0.28 under RedHat EL3), > I've found that META-INF/context.xml is > virtually unusable, primarily because it's so hard to deploy.
