The usual comment: don't put <Context> elements in server.xml; doc

Did you see a factory attribute in any of the Tomcat doc for JDBC
DataSources?
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/jndi-datasource-examples-howto.h
tml

> Context initCtx = new InitialContext(); 
> Context envCtx = (Context) initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env"); 
> DataSource ds = (DataSource)envCtx.lookup("jdbc/myDB"); 

Did you follow the above Tomcat doc and put a <resource-ref> in your
WEB-INF/web.xml file?

Read the Tomcat doc first, then use "other threads" for clarification,
if needed.  You won't see any mention of adding the above jars to
Tomcat's lib directory, since Tomcat already has its own versions.

> jtds-1.2.jar 

That one you need.
