Configuring netbeans
When building web applications for GLAST we do not build in the information about how to connect to a database. Instead the applications refer to database connections by symbolic names like "jdbc/glastgen" which are linked to real database connections in the tomcat configuration file. This avoids having to put database passwords into the applications themselves, and makes it possible to use tomcat's "connection pooling" mechanism (which makes database access more efficient).
When running tomcat inside netbeans we need to configure it to be able map these database connections. To do this, start netbeans, go to the "runtime" tab on the left, select Servers, Bundled Tomcat, right click and select "Edit server.xml". The server.xml file should now open in the editor. You need to post all of the standard GLAST connections into this file between the <GlobalNamingResources> </GlobalNamingResources> tags.
