Hello!
I tried to get my J2EE app working with DB2 for several days and now
it seems to work, but... (Tomcat 5.0.19 on NT 4.0 with J2SDK 1.4.1_02)
1) Declaring the DB2-datasource in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml did
not work.
All I got was a message like "Cannot create JDBC driver of class ''
for connect URL 'null', cause: null"
2) DB2-Driver (COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver) is in
CATALINA_HOME/common/lib, file renamed from db2java.zip to db2java.jar
3) I tried to place the ResourceParams in <GlobalNamingResources>,
then in <Context...>, but nothing worked for me...
4) Finally I placed a file myApp.xml in
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost and declared the datasource in
this file.
5) This way it works fine now. But here comes the question: Is it "the
right way" to place my config-file in
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost?
Thanks for each helpful idea.
Oliver
