Hi, Hi, Rather saving your context.xml file in the place you specify, you can save it in TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/yourApp/META-INF/
And you can specify 'Context' in TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/yourApp/WEB-INF/web.xml The context should be at the end of web.xml , any way it depends on your other resource definition. Stick to tomcat documentation at http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html Tomcat5.5 uses a different JNDI resource definition than Tomcat5. That is why you are not allowed to save that file in the location you specify. Reply me for any clarifications.
