Yes, SQL Server is on a remote physical server. That's why my sysadmin suggested changing the log on user for Tomcat. >>Has the new account been granted the Log On As A Service user right? Does the Tomcat process start at all? Does it have appropriate permissions on the Tomcat filestore? Yes, yes, yes. This domain user is the user I use to log onto my GIS server - where Tomcat is installed. When I look at other services running, if they are using a domain account they appear as: domain\domain_username When I use the "browse for user" and check the name, it changes to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I used this and it worked. Sometimes I just can't see the answer right in front of me, but I appreciate this list and your help!

Does it have appropriate permissions on the Tomcat filestore? You may find tools like filemon.exe useful if you end up debugging acces denials. Incidentally, is the SQL Server on the same box or on a remote one? If remote, you'll never get a SSPI connection using LocalSystem, as it's local to the machine on which Tomcat's running. - Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
