JNDI Datasource works in unpacked war, not in packed war

[John Cartwright]

Hello All,

I have a problem where a Datasource is configured in 
META-INF/context.xml and referenced in web.xml.  If I install this 
webapp unpacked, everything works fine.  However, if I try to run this 
webapp as a packed war, the datasource fails giving the exception:

org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create JDBC 
driver of class '' for connect URL 'null'

tomcat 5.5.17, excerpts from the context.xml and web.xml listed below.

Can anyone help me out w/ this?

Thanks!

web.xml:
....
   <resource-ref>
       <res-ref-name>jdbc/COUGAR</res-ref-name>
       <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
       <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
   </resource-ref>
...

context.xml
...
<Resource name="jdbc/COUGAR"
