Обсуждение: jndi jdbc url with ssl authenticat in tomcat ... failsorg.xml.sax.SAXParseException columnNumber: 79; The reference to entity "ssl"must end with the ';' delimiter

Pretty sure this is a tomcat error .

Hello,
I'm trying to configure a postgres jndi resource in tomcat that needs to connect via ssl and client certificate for authentication.
Unfortunately ... without success.

The user is: esrde_aoo and authenticates with a certificate (no password!).

Here is the tomcat 8.5.31 (running on jre 1.8.0_152-b16) resource configuration:
  <Resource type="javax.sql.DataSource" auth="Container" driverClassName="org.postgresql.Driver"
        name="jdbc/pgrde"
        url="jdbc:postgresql://test.localhost:5432/esrde?user=esrde_aoo&ssl=true&sslfactory=org.postgresql.ssl.NonValidatingFactory&sslcert=d:/apps/ssl/rde/esrde_aoo.crt&sslkey=d:/apps/ssl/rde/esrde_aoo.key"
        username="esrde_aoo"
        />

I tried many many different combination ... it always fails at the second parameter.

I would really appreciate some help.

Is my connection String correct?
Is this a tomcat or java bug?

Thank you very much any hint/help!
