Here is exactly what I have in my setup.
context.xml:
<Resource name="jdbc/myDbName"
auth="Container"
type="javax.sql.DataSource"
.
.
.
/>
In my code:
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource)ctx.lookup(_dataSourcePath);
if(null == ds)
throw new ServiceException("Cannot obtain DataSource");
return ds.getConnection();
(_dataSourcePath is set to "java:/comp/env/jdbc/myDbName")
Sometimes, it's not entirely obvious when you should use the
"java:/comp/env" prefix and when you shouldn't. I hope this helps.
Another thing to check is whether or not your context.xml is actually
being used. I'm not sure what will happen if you have a <context> in
your server.xml as well as a context.xml file. I recommend picking one
and sticking with it.
One more question: if you are using WebSphere in production, why use
Tomcat in development?
