Hello, i have some trouble using a datasource realm in tomcat 5.5.20, jdk 1.5.0_09.
In META-INF/Context.xml i defined a datasource: <Resource name="jdbc/mangos" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource" maxActive="10" maxIdle="2" maxWait="10000" username="" password="" driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/realmd?autoReconnect=true" /> and in web.xml a resource reference: <resource-ref> <description>DB Connection</description> <res-ref-name>jdbc/mangos</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <res-auth>Container</res-auth> </resource-ref> With hibernate everything works fine, no problems, but if i define a datasource realm in Context.xml <Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm" debug="4" dataSourceName="jdbc/mangos" userTable=... /> it can`t find the resource name: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name jdbc is not bound in this Context at org.apache.naming.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:769) at org.apache.naming.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:152) at org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm.open(DataSourceRealm.java:401) at org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm.authenticate(DataSourceRealm.j ava:282) ... I tried already the following namings, jdbc/mangos, java:comp/env/jdbc/mangos, mangos, java:/comp/env/jdbc/mangos with no luck. I can workaround this issue, when defining the resource in server.xml <GlobalNamingResources> and create a <ResourceLink name="jdbc/mangos" global="jdbc/mangos" type="javax.sql.DataSource" /> in Context.xml, but i would prefer, doing Realm and Datasource definition together in Context.xml. The second issue i run into is programming my webapp against the realm interface. I want to built up the Navigation Panel dynamically based on the users asigned roles, but when i try to access GenericPrincipal i get "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/catalina/realm/GenericPrincipal". I also can workaround this issue by copying the catalina into my webapp`s classpath (WEB-INF/lib/), but i`m pretty this is not correct. I would be appreciate for any help.
