My setup? I'm using MySQL 3.23 and the latest version of (don't recall the number) Connector/J for my driver. This is of course all sitting inside tomcat 4.0.4. I have manually installed the DBCP, collections and whatever other support classes I needed for DBCP.

I have configured DBCP via my server.xml file as such (below). When I was recieving the error from (org.hsql) that was because I was also attempting to creating a reference to the resource within my web.xml file. I have since removed it and that error has ceased. The error I am currently experiencing (javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name jdbc is not bound in this Context) was happening last night. *Seemed* to spontaneously got away, then this morning I loaded a few classes and rebooted and it started again. I have since removed those classes but the error is persisting.

Its worth noting that I can still obtain connections directly through JDBC, without the use of DBCP, no problem.

Please let me know if you can think of anything!!!!

Thanks! Neal
