If Tomcat is managing the connection pool, it's required, not just good practice. If your webapp is handling the connection pool, then the JDBC driver jar should be in the webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory. > It sounds like you're saying that I'm probably ok with the way I'm set > up now, but if I change some things, it's possible that something may > come back to bite me in the future. Is that a correct interpretation? That's unclear, since we don't have a good explanation of why you were getting the errors on the previous level. It is dangerous to have the same classes located in multiple places in a given branch of the classloader tree; all sorts of subtle errors can occur. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
