I had that error too. In my case it had to do with how I configured web.xml and server.xml.
I was able to get the example from the docs working but when switching to /root context got mixed up. You aren't using the root context are you? In any case, I would double check again server.xml and web.xml and compare them to the examples. That's where my driver class 'null' problem arose.
