This is what I have my /tomcat/conf/context.xml
<Context>
<Resource name="jdbc/black"
driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver"
auth="Container"
type="javax.sql.DataSource"
url=......................
username="blah"
password="whoaaa"/>
<Resource name="jdbc/brown"
.
.
<Resource name="jdbc/purple"
.
.
<Context path="/appname" override="true" docBase="appname" reloadable="false" crossContext="true" allowLinking="true"/>
</Context>
I tried to add /tomcat/webapps/appname/META-INF/context.xml ( still doesnt work)
<Context>
<Context path="/appname" override="true" docBase="appname" reloadable="false" crossContext="true" allowLinking="true"/>
</Context>
but my app still cannot read the symbolically linked file but if replaced with the real file , works fine.
My
tomcat version is 6.0.14 on linux.
Any ideas where the issue might be?
All help is very much appreciated.
