Andre, thx for you reply.
My war has no /META-INF/context.xml, here is piece of server.xml:
<Host name="localhost" appBase="C:\test\catalina_base\webapps"
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true" deployOnStartup="true"
deployXML="false">
even with deployXML="false" my jdbc.context if removed from
C:\test\catalina_base\conf\Catalina\localhost
Regards
Jakub
