OK, I removed the path and docBase attributes from the Context element;
as expected, the warning in the log goes away but the DataSource problem
does not.
The mysql-connector-java-5.1.5-bin.jar file is world-readable; it is in
$TOMCAT_HOME/lib and nowhere else; I did have another copy in
$TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib per a suggestion in a different thread, but that
made no difference so I removed it.

There is a warning about the docBase attribute (strange; I
copied that text verbatim from the Tomcat FAQ); if I remove
that attribute, the warning goes away, but the DataSource
remains uninitialized.
The FAQ is out of date for 5.5 and later levels.
You should also remove the path attribute, since it's illegal when the
<Context> element is not in server.xml (and such elements should never
be in server.xml).
The docBase attribute is illegal unless the app is located somewhere
outside of the <Host>'s appBase directory.
However, neither of the above is causing your DB connection problem.
Have you checked permissions on the mysql-connector-java-5.1.5-bin.jar
to make sure Tomcat can read it?
Does that jar (or any MySQL jar) also exist in the webapp's WEB-INF/lib
directory? If so, remove it; it shouldn't be in two places at once.
