If you are using multiple databases, I believe you have to set up multiple "Resources" (one for each database). However, you do not have to specify a username/password. When you retrieve your DataSource from the "java:comp/env" namespace, you can use getConnection( username, password). If you don't use multiple users for the database, then this may seem impractical.
You do need a different "Resource" definition for each database though. -Leo http://www.foopan.ath.cx On Thu, 2002-10-17 at 14:19, Mark Lenz wrote: > I'm trying to set up DB Connection Pooling with Tomcat 4.1.12 and MySQL > 4.0.4.
