GOOD GOSH!!! I don't believe it! It's now friggin' working!
Thank you all: Chuck, Chris, Andre, Mark, Gregor, et al. I had one little bad validation attribute in the context.xml file, and that was throwing it off. That, of course, after all that other junk, and the other junk being the tomcat-dbcp.jar file located myriad places! Thanks so much for your patience and help!!

Now the Oracle driver is initially called (and found) to pull back a tabled page of data, no problem. Clicking thru subsequently to a simple JSP with the Context in it produces the following errors: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: An exception occurred processing JSP page /chgctrl_details.jsp at line 83 80: DataSource ds = (DataSource) envCtx.lookup("jdbc/myoracle"); 81: */ 82: // Allocate and use a connection from the pool 83: connection = ds.getConnection(); <------------------------------------------------- here, but then javax.servlet.ServletException: org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create PoolableConnectionFactory (ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected ) org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.doHandlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:862) org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.handlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:791) org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create PoolableConnectionFactory (ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected ) org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSource.createDataSource(BasicDataSource.java:1225) org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.BasicDataSource.getConnection(BasicDataSource.java:880) java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.throwSqlException(DBError.java:134) oracle.jdbc.ttc7.TTIoer.processError(TTIoer.java:289) oracle.jdbc.ttc7.Oall7.receive(Oall7.java:582) oracle.jdbc.ttc7.TTC7Protocol.doOall7(TTC7Protocol.java:1986) Just provided snippets from each of these errors, not the entire set of references on down. The logs - basically the same. Java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected Any ideas from this? I'm not yet inclined to think it's fully an Oracle error yet. But I could be wrong about that. : ) -----Original Message----- From: Caldarale, Charles R [mailto:chuck.caldar...@unisys.com] Sent: Friday, March 19, 2010 1:58 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: DB connection error -Tomcat 6 config > From: Propes, Barry L [mailto:barry.l.pro...@citi.com] > Subject: RE: DB connection error -Tomcat 6 config > > There is another copy of the tomcat-dbcp.jar in my JRE lib directory.

No; Tomcat does not modify the JRE in any way. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
