Right ... tomcat 6's version of common/lib/ is simply lib/

Location of the driver jars is not entirely as simple as either in your webapp or on the container's lib directory. Like the Highlander (good movie if you haven't seen it), there can be only one. If another webapp is using it and it's in either common/lib/ or lib/ depending on your tomcat version, you can't have a copy in your webapp's WEB-INF/lib folder.

I'm not sure about Tomcat 6, but in Tomcat 5.x there's no such thing
as $CATALIN_HOME/lib. YOur JDBC-drivers should either be bundled with
your web-app (if that's the only one using them) or, if used both from
Tomcat and your webapp(s) to $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib

Coming to the context:

- Create a file called "context.xml" in your META-INF-directory of your web-app
- define your context in there
- pack your war
- deploy
- feel happy and read
