Well, while I did point it to the proper factory object -  
factory="org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.DataSourceConnectionFactory"

I still get the same error - 

An error occurred at line: 68 in the jsp file: /chngctrl/chgctrl_details.jsp
Type mismatch: cannot convert from Object to Context
65: 
66: Connection connection = null;
67: Context initCtx = new InitialContext();
68: Context envCtx = initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env");
69: // Look up our data source
70: DataSource ds = initCtx.lookup("jdbc/myoracle");
71:

this line - I even tried importing the javax.naming.spi.NamingManager  class in

Again, that factory reference is incorrect - there's no such class.  If you 
insist on specifying one, and you want to use Tomcat's factory, the value is 
"org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.DataSourceConnectionFactory" (note the additional 
.dbcp in the proper setting).

All the symptoms point to your <Resource> element being ignored.  Check that 
you don't have a <Context> element in conf/Catalina/[host]/chngctrl.xml that's 
overriding the one in the webapps/chngctrl/META-INF/context.xml file.
