connection pooling problem

[Deba PratimBhuyan]

I tried to do the connection pooling example given in
JNDI Datasource HOW-TO webpage

But I got the following error message in my log file

How are you setting up and using the DataSource? Post the relevant excerpts from server.xml, web.xml and your application code.

[Deba PratimBhuyan]

Details of my application is as follows...
my java fileBTest.java

   package foo;

import javax.naming.*;
import javax.sql.*;
import java.sql.*;

public class DBTest {

  String foo = "Not Connected";
  int bar = -1;
    
  public void init() {
    try{
      Context ctx = new InitialContext();
      if(ctx == null ) 
          throw new Exception("Boom - No Context");

      DataSource ds = 
            (DataSource)ctx.lookup(
               "java:comp/env/jdbc/TestDB");

      if (ds != null) {
        Connection conn = ds.getConnection();
              
        if(conn != null)  {
            foo = "Got Connection "+conn.toString();
            Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
            ResultSet rst = 
                stmt.executeQuery(
                  "select id, foo, bar from testdata");
            if(rst.next()) {
               foo=rst.getString(2);
               bar=rst.getInt(3);
            }
            conn.close();
        }
      }
    }catch(Exception e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
 }

 public String getFoo() { return foo; }
 public int getBar() { return bar;}
}

It probably isn't related to the problem at hand, but you should never have two versions of the same library in the classpath (like you have here with the driver jar file).

[Deba PratimBhuyan]

anyone please solve my problem

[ken zhu]

remove the earlier mysql driver jar(mysql-connector-java-5.0.3-bin.jar) to try.
btw, you don't need paste so lot of error message since it raised by container.
