Just to add my 2 cents. I have found the only thing that consistently worked for me is to declare the Realm and the Datasource inside of META-INF/context.xml if you deploy war files, $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/Catalina/<host>/MyContext.xml if you don't. Then reference the datasource as normal in your web.xml
