Thanks for the quick reply!
I just checked and the driver is only in common/lib
I also checked to see if the context.xml file was being picked up, but I don't
see it anywhere. It's getting moved out of META_INF and from what I understand
it gets renamed to "war's name.xml". I checked that file, but my stuff isn't
in there.
I then grep'd the entire tomcat directory for values I put in context.xml, but
didn't find them. Am I missing something?
