Hi Mario, Thanks for getting back to me. Below is the context I set up.
After doing my own digging, I realized I was missing some jakarta commons jar files. After getting these jars and restarting Tomcat the ClassNotFoundExceptions went away. What I find really puzzling though is why I didn't get the same ClassNotFoundException on my local machine that was running the same version of Tomcat but on Windows XP profession. <Context debug="0" privileged="true"> <!-- the jdbc driver's jar needs to go into $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib --> <Resource name="jdbc/as400" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource" factory="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory" maxActive="20" maxIdle="10" maxWait="-1" removeAbandoned="true" removeAbandonedTimeout="60" logAbandoned="true" driverClassName="com.ibm.as400.access.AS400JDBCDriver" url="jdbc:as400://a53pb3;naming=system;libraries=,pgmdbt,caelib;errors=full" username="userid" password="password"/> </Context> Mario Winterer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 02/02/2005 07:19 PM Please respond to "Tomcat Users List" <tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org> To Tomcat Users List <tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org> cc Subject Re: Tomcat 5.5.4/Windows 2000 server - Failed to register in JMX: BasicDataSourceFactory Hi! How did you define your JDBC DataSource? As far as I know, the original jakarta-commons-dbcp and jakarta-commons-pool-libraries are not included with Tomcat. Instead, just a subset of the required classes with modified package names (starting with 'org.apache.tomcat.dbcp') are packed in 'naming-factory-dbcp.jar' that can be found in commons/lib. But if you configure your JDBC DataSource correctly, this should not bother. Please post your resource-configuration!
