I am putting resources.xml in the WEB-INF Folder, with a resource configuration.
<Resource id="jdbc/localDB" type="javax.sql.DataSource"> JdbcDriver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver JdbcUrl jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/localdb MaxActive 100 MaxIdle 30 MaxWait 10000 UserName username Password password </Resource> Unfortunately, tomee single mindedly tries to load the hsqldb and then report a vague issue java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: user lacks privilege or object not found: USERS at org.hsqldb.jdbc.Util.sqlException(Unknown Source) at org.hsqldb.jdbc.Util.sqlException(Unknown Source) If I put the resource in the tomee.xml in conf folder "Sometimes" it works. Environment: Windows 7 ; Eclipse : Tomee 1.5.2 Tested as a war on tomee 1.5.2 - the error still exists. A similar problem is reported here http://openejb.979440.n4.nabble.com/Unable-to-configure-MYSQL-resource-in-tomee-xml-td4659538i20.html and here https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-924 - any ideas? Resolutions?
