In order for JNDI data sources to work, both Tomcat and the web app must have access to the driver. So you have to put the driver in Tomcat/lib; putting it in WEB-INF/lib makes it private to the web app. > A) is this a new feature in TC6?

If you want the JNDI data source, put the mysql.jar in Tomcat/lib.
