It's been awhile since I used eclipse, so forgive my lack of specificity. I did run into this problem several times, though, when I was using eclipse I'm sure of it.
Are you setting up a database connection pool? You can define these either in server.xml or in a separate context file. I believe the server.xml configuration will override the context file (correct me if I'm wrong here, but I'm pretty certain one will override the other). Depending on how you give eclipse control of your war assembly and tomcat lifecycle, it may create a context file automatically for you, which is somewhere in the eclipse project configuration/settings/preferences. >From the command line, do a ps -aux | grep tomcat (or the equivalent in windows if that's what you're into) and take a look at the startup string for tomcat that is being used by eclipse. I also recommend examining the differences between your stand alone "working" deployment startup string and the eclipse startup string. Eclipse might be creating an entirely new deployment configuration tree and pointing to your tomcat installation for its base files, and copying an entirely new set of configuration files to the new tomcat deployment tree. This is useful for bringing up multiple instances of Tomcat in a cluster, but does get annoying and confusing sometimes for development. More information about the error, and information about the startup commands for tomcat would help me advise further. Take a little time to straighten out which set(s) of files re driving tomcat, and one final word to the wise .. make sure you aren't pointing to another older/stale war file that is deploying successfully. THAT is annoying! ;) John On 2/9/19, Jerry Malcolm <techst...@malcolms.com> wrote: > John, > > Specifically what "jdbc configuration" am I looking for?
