Resource - Cannot load JDBC driver class 'null'

[af...@zipmail.com]

Hello,
I created a DataSource("jdbc/SAA") through Tomcat
 Administration and put into my web.xml:

<resource-ref>
	<description>Download example</description>
	<res-ref-name>jdbc/SAA</res-ref-name>
	<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
	<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>

But when I try to use it I get the following error:

java.lang.Exception: java.sql.SQLException: Cannot load
 JDBC driver class 'null'

Tomcat changed by itself the server.xml with many things
 like:

<Context
 className="org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext"
 cachingAllowed="true"
 charsetMapperClass="org.apache.catalina.util.CharsetMapper"
 cookies="true" crossContext="false" debug="0"
 docBase="D:\java\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.12\webapps\sampleFilters"
 mapperClass="org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextMapper"
 path="/sampleFilters" privileged="false"
 reloadable="false" swallowOutput="false" useNaming="true"
 wrapperClass="org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapper">
	<Resource auth="Container" description="Download example"
 name="jdbc/SAA" scope="Shareable"
 type="javax.sql.DataSource"/>
</Context>

I searched other lists and found out that many people had
 this problem, but I found no soulution.
Could somebody help me?

Thanks.
Ricardo Costa.

Note that there are no nested elements inside the <Context>.  That implies
that you created the new data source in the "global resources" area.  To
make it visible to a webapp, you also need to create a "Resource Link"
inside the <Context>, by highlighting this context in the tree and
selecting the "add resource link" action.
