Matt,
I'm not sure about your comment that you changed the "type" attribute of
the resource element to java.sql.DataSource, that is actually not
correct, it should be javax.sql.DataSource.
The part about "/roller" is fine. The path attribute of the context
element defines the virtual location for the application within your
servlet container, so by setting the path to /roller it means that's the
location you will use to access Roller. i.e. if you server is at
http://myserver.com/ then the application should be running at
http://myserver.com/roller/

in the roller.xml:
I am trying to install roller on tomcat 5.5.17 I was getting problems
with postgres driver not being found. And I realized that the driver
name was org.postgres.Driver instead of org.postgresql.Driver. I fixed
that and then I was getting a filterStart error. When I looked at the
resource type I noticed that the type is javax.sql.DataSource. I
changed that to java.sql.DataSource and now tomcat is starting with no
errors. However, I still can't navigate to the roller webapp. I am
looking at the docbase and the path for the roller.xml file and I find
it quizical that the path in the install doc points to a directory that
does not exist (/roller).
below is my context file:
<Context path="/roller" docBase="/home/http/roller" debug="0">
<Resource name="jdbc/rollerdb" auth="Container" type="java.sql.DataSource"
driverClassName="org.postgresql.Driver"
url="jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/roller?autoReconnect=true"
username="<removed>"
password="<removed>"
maxActive="20"
maxIdle="3"
removeAbandoned="true"
maxWait="3000" />
<!-- If you want e-mail features, un-comment the section below -->
<!--
<Resource name="mail/Session" auth="Container" type="javax.mail.Session"
mail.smtp.host="localhost" />
-->
</Context>
and here is a directory listing of the docbase:
ls -l /home/http/roller/

why does the path in the context file point to a directory that does not
exist. Am I missing something? How does tomcat know what subdirectory
the roller app lives in?
