Yes, it should be. Not sure how that got jumbled as such but what I did have was:
Connection connection = null; Context initCtx = new InitialContext(); Context envCtx = (Context) initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env"); DataSource ds = (DataSource) envCtx.lookup("jdbc/myoracle"); Tried other variations seen elsewhere on here as suggested. But still no dice. Odd - like I'd mentioned earlier, I can pass params through (DBUrl, user, password) and hit it, but not with a Context object. -----Original Message----- From: Pid [mailto:p...@pidster.com] Sent: Thursday, March 18, 2010 5:02 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: DB connection error -Tomcat 6 config On 18/03/2010 21:26, Bob Hall wrote: > --- On Thu, 3/18/10 at 1:56 PM, Caldarale, Charles > R<chuck.caldar...@unisys.com> wrote: > >> If you can, move up to 6.0.26 so we can all be looking at the same >> release. > > From one of the OP's earlier messages: > >> An error occurred at line: 68 in the jsp file: >> /chngctrl/chgctrl_details.jsp Type mismatch: cannot convert from >> Object to Context >> 65: >> 66: Connection connection = null; >> 67: Context initCtx = new InitialContext(); >> 68: Context envCtx = initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env"); >> 69: // Look up our data source >> 70: DataSource ds = initCtx.lookup("jdbc/myoracle"); >> 71: Context envCtx = initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env"); DataSource ds = initCtx.lookup("jdbc/myoracle"); should be: Context envCtx = initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env"); DataSource ds = envCtx.lookup("jdbc/myoracle"); no? p >> SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception > javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name jdbc is not bound in this > Context >> at >> org.apache.naming.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:770) > > > Have you tried: > > 66: Connection connection = null; > 67: Context initCtx = new InitialContext(); > 68: Context envCtx = (Context) initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env"); > 69: // Look up our data source > 70: DataSource ds = (DataSource) initCtx.lookup("java:/myoracle"); > > OR > > 70: DataSource ds = (DataSource) initCtx.lookup("java:jdbc/myoracle"); > > > - Bob > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
