anonymous wrote : javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: oracleDS not bound Can you write a new jsp with the following code snippet | InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext(); | DataSource ds = (DataSource)ctx.lookup("java:oracleDS"); | Connection con = ds.getConnection(); This should work ... I am not sure how you are trying to get the DS in your web application , looks like the you are binding it in the resource ref tag of the web.xml .
