We do this all of the time in test and production environments. We use
Datasource in the web.xml. I went through your parameters and, assuming the
values are correct, they look fine. We use port 7101, though.
The invocation exception looks like the error I get when the ifxjdbc.jar is
not on the classpath. Other than that, I can't explain why you're having
issues.
Attached is the excerpt from my context.xml file for comparison:
<Context path="/myapp" debug="0" reloadable="true"
crossContext="true">
<Resource name="jdbc/myapp" auth="Container"
type="javax.sql.DataSource"
maxActive="20"
maxIdle="-1" maxWait="20000"
username="xxxx" password="xxxx"
driverClassName="com.informix.jdbc.IfxDriver"
url="jdbc:informix-sqli://lexinfmx1:7101/jur_feds:INFORMIXSERVER=my_ifx"/>
</Context>
And the web.xml:
<resource-ref>
<description>Main DataSource</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/myapp</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
Then I load it from JNDI using Spring, so I can't be of much help there.
Let me know if you have further questions.

Subject: Error encountered : JNDI on Tomcat 5.5 for Database Informix with
Informix JDBC driver
Hi All,
I am from IBM - Informix Product Interoperability team . I tried to
create a JNDI connection from Tomcat to Database Informix. But it is
throwing error. I classified the error by the following way :
1. When I tried with type="javax.sql.DataSource" , I am getting error
"Cannot create PoolableConnectionFactory (Can't load driver
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException)" .
2. When I tried with type="com.informix.jdbcx.IfxConnectionPoolDataSource"
, I am getting error "java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver".
3. But we use JNDI connections from WAS , WAS CE and Web Logic also. There
it works fine.
4. Here I have added a sample Java Code also for Pooled connection and it
is working fine.
So the clarification I need is, whether Tomcat supports Informix for a
JNDI connection. If yes, please suggest me the way it should work . I
attached my context.xml as well as web.xml contains also.
Looking for your help eagerly.
