You bring up a very good point, thanks for spotting that for me. I have now created a context.xml according to the example in the Tomcat 5.5 documentation and this time I've placed it my application's META-INF directory in the WAR (since it was pointed out to me that this approach is preferable to modifying the server.xml file). Unfortunately I still get the same errors as before, with no more information in the log files other than the cryptic "SEVERE: Error listenerStart" message. Below are the contents of my META-INF/context.xml file. Does anything look amiss now? Perhaps I need to enclose this <Context> entry with a <Server>, <Service>, or <Host> entry? --------------- META-INF/context.xml ------------- <Context path="/ioifocus" docBase="ioifocus" debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true"> <Resource name="jdbc/MySqlDataSource" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource" maxActive="100" maxIdle="30" maxWait="10000" username="admin" password="XXXXXXX" driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/ioifocus" removeAbandoned="true" /> </Context> Thanks in advance for any further help/insight... --James __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
