I got it working. It was really dumb actually. In conf/Catalina/localhost I had the file named as context.xml. I renamed it to match the name of the app and it worked.

This will allow you to make changes to the driver without a restarting Tomcat. Place nothing in server.xml. Add it the context.xml. What version is the driver and how big is it?

Where did you put it? Are you wanting global or context resource?
