Will not work on TC4 in the war. That's why I asked earlier. It will on TC5.
When you deploy look in the logs or look in $Catalina_Home/conf/Catalina/localhost and see if there is a yourappname.xml there. If not then TC is not seeing your context.xml . If it is you may try setting up a GlobalResource for the database pool. It all works fine under TC5. If that's an option.
