What is the directory structure of ".../donow62/website"?

The exception is basically saying that the donow62 app is missing the JSTL

Is the JSTL JAR file in
/Users/gibranecastillo/Documents/workspace/CollegeLife/donow62/website/WEB-INF/lib?
If not, you aren't actually using it.

Although I don't do it myself, Eclipse is pretty good at deploying web
applications to Tomcat itself: you shouldn't have to even create your
own context.xml file and fill it with data.

If you want to do everything manually (believe me, I understand), then
you'll need to make sure that your Eclipse project successfully builds
to a WAR-like structure which contains, among other things, a WEB-INF/
directory and all of the things that should be in there (like
lib/*.jar). If you don't do that, then you won't really be deploying a
web application... you'll effectively be mapping a directory on the
disk into a URL space and getting no other benefits.
