We were having the following problem: when starting an web app in Tomcat 6 that uses JNDI to locate a database connection, we got the exception: I don’t know if this will do anyone any good (please leave a comment if it helps you!), but I want to get myself into the habit of blogging these sort of things for the potential good of other web searchers out there.
