I'll bet this is the problem. It's odd, though, since the exception is:

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException:
org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSource
   at org.apache.naming.factory.ResourceFactory.getObjectInstance(
ResourceFactory.java:97)

Here's the code in question:

                if (factoryClass != null) {
                    try {
// line 97             factory = (ObjectFactory)
// line 97 cont'd                 factoryClass.newInstance();
                    } catch (Throwable t) {
                        if (t instanceof NamingException)
                            throw (NamingException) t;
                        NamingException ex = new NamingException
                            ("Could not create resource factory
                             instance");
                        ex.initCause(t);
                        throw ex;
                    }
                }

For some reason, his ObjectFactory isn't an ObjectFactory... it's a
BasicDataSource.

Prem, have you put any Tomcat-related JAR files into your WEB-INF/lib
directory?
