I am running ok with tomcat 4.1.9 using the oracle thin driver. Tomcat 4.1 JNDI datasource examples doc say -
Use of the OCI driver should simply involve a changing thin to oci in the URL string. <name>url</name> <value>jdbc:oracle:thin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:1521:mysid</value> Your url in server.xml is <value>jdbc:oracle:oci8@homebank</value> If homebank is in your tnsname.ora maybe tomcat is having problems locating it. Or Do you have the commons jar files e.g. commons-dbcp.jar in common\lib The commons jar file were installed for me when i installed tomcat 4.1.9. Good luck.
