JNDI lookup for DataSource

[prachi jahagirdar]

<code>
try
{
javax.naming.Context jndiCntx=new javax.naming.InitialContext();
javax.sql.DataSource ds
=(javax.sql.DataSource)jndiCntx.lookup("jdbc/home");
c = ds.getConnection(getUID(),getPassword().trim());
s = c.createStatement();
//}catch(javax.naming.NamingException e){e.printStackTrace();}
}catch(Exception e){Log.print(":Exception = "+e);
</code>
In the above code i am trying to get connected to the DB2. Working with Webspehere 5.0. I am new to Webspehere. Created a JDBC Provider for DB2. Created a datasource with jndi name 'jdbc/home'.
**The exception i am getting is:
Exception = com.ibm.websphere.ce.cm.ConnectionWaitTimeoutException: Connection not available, Timed out waiting.
Is there anything else to be done to get the connection?
Thank you

Hi,
I am not exactly sure of your problem, but I would make a try to help you. Normally this Exception occurs if all the Connections in the pool are used and when a request for a new Connection is given to the DataSource after the Connection timeout, it throws this Exception. May be by increasing the timeout time or by increasing the connections in the pool could solve the problem.
At the same time check it ther is any Connection leaks in the code. Whenever Connection use is complete close (it would be better you close the connection in finally, so that even in the case of Exception the Connection would be closed).
