我发现实现一个简单的destroy()方法来注销任何JDBC驱动程序工作得很好。

/**
 * Destroys the servlet cleanly by unloading JDBC drivers.
 * 
 * @see javax.servlet.GenericServlet#destroy()
 */
public void destroy() {
    String prefix = getClass().getSimpleName() +" destroy() ";
    ServletContext ctx = getServletContext();
    try {
        Enumeration<Driver> drivers = DriverManager.getDrivers();
        while(drivers.hasMoreElements()) {
            DriverManager.deregisterDriver(drivers.nextElement());
        }
    } catch(Exception e) {
        ctx.log(prefix + "Exception caught while deregistering JDBC drivers", e);
    }
    ctx.log(prefix + "complete");
}

我也遇到了类似的问题，但除此之外，每当我在运行Tomcat服务器的情况下修改/保存JSP页面时，我都会得到一个Java堆空间错误，因此上下文没有完全充电。

我的版本是Apache Tomcat 6.0.29和JDK 6u12。

根据URL http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/MemoryLeakProtection的参考部分的建议，将JDK升级到6u21解决了Java堆空间问题(上下文现在重新加载OK)，尽管仍然出现JDBC驱动程序错误。

这个错误发生在我使用JTDS Driver 1.3.0 (SQL Server)的Grails应用程序中。问题是SQL Server登录错误。解决这个问题后(在SQL Server)，我的应用程序被正确部署在Tomcat。提示:我在stacktrace.log中看到了错误

如果您从Maven构建的war中获得此消息，则将JDBC驱动程序的作用域更改为已提供，并将其副本放在lib目录中。是这样的:

<dependency>
  <groupId>mysql</groupId>
  <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
  <version>5.1.18</version>
  <!-- put a copy in /usr/share/tomcat7/lib -->
  <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

        }
    } catch(Exception e) {
        ctx.log(prefix + "Exception caught while deregistering JDBC drivers", e);
    }
    ctx.log(prefix + "complete");
}

针对每个应用部署的解决方案

这是一个侦听器，我写来解决这个问题:它自动检测驱动程序是否已经注册自己，并采取相应的行动

重要的是:它只能在驱动程序jar部署在WEB-INF/lib中使用，而不是像许多人建议的那样部署在Tomcat /lib中，这样每个应用程序都可以处理自己的驱动程序并在未受影响的Tomcat上运行。恕我直言，这才是应该的方式。

只需在web.xml中配置侦听器，然后再执行其他操作即可。

在web.xml顶部添加:

<listener>
    <listener-class>utils.db.OjdbcDriverRegistrationListener</listener-class>    
</listener>

保存为utils/db/OjdbcDriverRegistrationListener.java:

package utils.db;

import java.sql.Driver;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.util.Enumeration;

import javax.servlet.ServletContextEvent;

/**

 * Use only when the ojdbc jar is deployed inside the webapp (not as an
 * appserver lib)

public class OjdbcDriverRegistrationListener implements ServletContextListener {

    private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory
            .getLogger(OjdbcDriverRegistrationListener.class);

    private Driver driver = null;

    /**
     * Registers the Oracle JDBC driver
     */
    @Override
    public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent servletContextEvent) {
        this.driver = new OracleDriver(); // load and instantiate the class
        boolean skipRegistration = false;
        Enumeration<Driver> drivers = DriverManager.getDrivers();
        while (drivers.hasMoreElements()) {
            Driver driver = drivers.nextElement();
            if (driver instanceof OracleDriver) {
                OracleDriver alreadyRegistered = (OracleDriver) driver;
                if (alreadyRegistered.getClass() == this.driver.getClass()) {
                    // same class in the VM already registered itself
                    skipRegistration = true;
                    this.driver = alreadyRegistered;
                    break;
                }
            }
        }

        try {
            if (!skipRegistration) {
                DriverManager.registerDriver(driver);
            } else {
                LOG.debug("driver was registered automatically");
            }
            LOG.info(String.format("registered jdbc driver: %s v%d.%d", driver,
                    driver.getMajorVersion(), driver.getMinorVersion()));
        } catch (SQLException e) {
            LOG.error(
                    "Error registering oracle driver: " + 
                            "database connectivity might be unavailable!",
                    e);
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
    }

    /**

    }
