Re: JDBC and servlet

James-

We're using the Tomcat servlet engine & have had no similar problems, So I
think you can eliminate the JDBC driver from your list & focus on Resin or
something in your code.

We also quickly decided that we needed to be using a connection pool for a
web app. Opening & closing connections really drags your performance down
quickly!

Regards,

-Nick
