Sure, I can make an attempt at it. I'd like to finish the wiki entry first. What I'm writing though will have to be drastically shortened for the documentation page I think.
I just ran into a bit of a puzzle though. I was trying to unravel what happens when you put everything into server.xml and use a CombinedRealm. Under Linux, I had to add a ResourceLink element to my context.xml in order to use the sub-Realm. I can understand that I need a ResourceLink when I put the Resource in GlobalNamingResources and the Realm in context.xml, but I was rather surprised that I needed the ResourceLink when both are in server.xml. I'll see if I can reproduce this on Windows/XP (make sure I've done everything in a reasonable order). If that is indeed the case, can someone explain: 1. Context.xml - everything no ResourceLink needed (obviously) 2. Context.xml - Realm, server.xml Resource in GlobalNamingResources ResourceLink needed (obviously) 3. Server.xml - CombinedRealm, Resource in GlobalNamingResources ResourceLink needed (??) thanks for clearing things up . . . . /mde/ --- On Mon, 6/14/10, Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> wrote: > From: Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> > Subject: Re: hibernate not finding global resource datasource defined by > tomcat > To: "Tomcat Users List" <users@tomcat.apache.org> > Date: Monday, June 14, 2010, 2:59 PM > On 14/06/2010 22:45, Mark Eggers > wrote: > > I'm trying to finish up a document on > DataSourceRealms.
