If the MySQL database base connection has worked before and will work
again, when you remove your newly created Context file, then there has
to be a Resource definition for it somewhere.
As you are using Linux why don't you simply search the files in the
$CATALINA_HOME directory for this Resource definition? I.e. like this:
grep -R "mysql" /usr/local/tomcat
This way, you should find the file defining the MySQL resource for your
web application (context). Then proceed as I suggested.
Best wishes
