Are you using Tomcat to configure your database, or some other component (e.g. Spring, Hibernate, etc.)? > I have created a folder env-conf and set a -Dconfig property in the > catalina.sh, to point to the config file. If you want to set system properties, it would be better to set them in bin/setenv.sh instead of bin/catalina.sh, because setenv.sh will never be changed by a Tomcat release. Specifically, what property did you set, and what value did you use? > Tomcat does not pickup this file, instead it picks the properties > file from the .war. Which one? I don't believe Tomcat reads properties files /at all/ for configuring a database connection, so this is likely to be whatever component you are using (e.g. Spring, etc.) that is making a mistake. > How would I be able to pick up the external properties file, instead > of the one bundled in the war file? You can probably fix this with a few tweaks to the effective class loader configuration, but it largely depends upon the answers to tbe questions above. -chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
