Anyone have any suggestions for configuring an SSL encrypted
connection pool to postgresql with tomcat 5.5.15?

PROBLEM:
I am having a problem setting up DB connection pooling with
Postgresql through JNDI in Tomcat 5.5.15. I have a portlet
application that is hosted in the GridSphere portlet container
that, upon initialization, gets a database connection from JNDI.
The database that I am connecting to REQUIRES an SSL connection so
my question is mostly about passing the usessl argument in the JNDI
config but I have included my setup to make sure I'm doing
everything correctly.
ENVIRONMENT
Linux
Java 1.4.2
Tomcat 5.5.15
Assuming my webapp name is "account-portlet" Here's my setup:
I have a context file in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/
account-portlet.xml and the contents look like the following:
<!-- The contents of this file will be loaded for each web
application -->
<Context path="/tg-account-portlets" docBase="tg-account-portlets"
debug="1">
<!-- Default set of monitored resources -->
<WatchedResource>WEB-INF/web.xml</WatchedResource>
<Resource name="jdbc/jndihandle"
auth="Container"
type="javax.sql.DataSource"
factory="org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory"
driverClassName="org.postgresql.Driver"
username="account_user"
password="secret"
url="jdbc:postgresql://pgsql.server.org:5432/mydb"
connectionProperties="useSSL=force"
/>
.....other Resource elements where I'm trying other combinations
of properties....
</Context>
I also have the following in my web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd";>
<web-app>
....
<resource-ref>
<description>DataSource</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/jndidatasource</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
</web-app>
I am getting a JNDI context as follows:
public void init() throws PortletException {
try {
Context initContext = new InitialContext();
Context envContext = (Context) initContext.lookup
("java:/comp/env");
//if (context == null) {
//throw new Exception ("Uh oh -- no context!");
//}
DataSource ds = (DataSource) envContext.lookup("jdbc/
jndihandle");
if (ds == null) {
throw new Exception("Data source not found!");
}
conn = ds.getConnection();
}catch(NamingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
When I run my application I get the following error in catalina.out:
org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create
PoolableConnectionFactory (Connection rejected: FATAL: No
pg_hba.conf entry for host <hidden>, user account_user, database mydb
this tells me that the JNDI stuff is working but the SSL property
is not being set. I've tried appending ?useSSL=force to the url
attribute, I've tried appending ;useSSL=force to the url
attribute. I still get the same error message. I have been
unable to find any examples of people passing the useSSL property
in the JNDI config. Any Ideas?
Many Thanks,
Eric
