how to connect to a new database

[ravi.patnaik15]

Hi,
i am connecting to an instance of oracle database from my UNIX tomcat
server.Now i want to connect to another instance of the database server
from the same UNIX server. so i modified the server.xml file of the
tomcat server accordingly. but still i am not able to connect to the
new instance of the database server from UNIX server.
I tried connecting to the new database server from my local Windows
system and it was successful. Can u please let me know whethere apart
from the server.xml, do i need to change any other file. please put
some light on this issue.

Thanks in advance.
Rabi

Usually not. Do you want to specify a second datasource or have you
modified the data of the existing datasource? It could be that there is
a context.xml-file in the META-INF directory within your webapp, which
may contain the datasource and may thus overwrite the datasource
settings specified in server.xml. Also, be sure to restart the
tomcat-server as much as possible

Thanks Moiristo,
But there is no context.xml in my webapps directory.
