java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java/sql/Driver

When starting Tomcat in Eclipse I see this error

Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java/sql/Driver
    at java.base/java.lang.ClassLoader.findBootstrapClass(Native Method)
    at java.base/java.lang.ClassLoader.findBootstrapClassOrNull(ClassLoader.java:1258)
...

However, earlier it logs this

INFO: Command line argument: -Xbootclasspath/a:/home/lordbah/.m2/repository/mysql/mysql-connector-java/8.0.26/mysql-connector-java-8.0.26.jar:/home/lordbah/.m2/repository/com/google/protobuf/protobuf-java/3.11.4/protobuf-java-3.11.4.jar: ....

And mysql-connector-java-8.0.26.jar does exist there. Also, mysql-connector-java-8.0.26.jar exists in the lib folder from which Eclipse is running it, /home/xyz/apache-tomcat-9.0.26/lib (and contents are identical). So it seems like it ought to be able to find java.sql.Driver. (hmm, unless it's the actual interface that it can't find rather than the implementation - but I don't know why that would suddenly be the case)

I have no idea what is causing that jar to be added as a -Xbootclasspath argument when eclipse runs tomcat. It doesn't appear in Run/Run Configurations/Arguments or Classpath. But unless Java is confused by finding it in two places, and just gives up instead of having one override the other, then I don't think it should matter anyway. (Also, I temporarily renamed the one in tomcat's lib and got the same error)

The context.xml for the database to be used:

<Resource name="jdbc/football" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
        initialSize="10" maxTotal="100" minIdle="10" maxIdle="30"
        maxWaitMillis="10000" validationQuery="/* ping */ SELECT 1"
        testWhileIdle="true"
        username="zzzzzz" password="zzzzzzzz"
        driverClassName="com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver" url="jdbc:mysql://yyyyyy/football?autoReconnect=true" />

"Hey, isn't this a duplicate question?" While the same error has been seen quite a number of times, I haven't found a solution which helps in this case (usually it's "you're missing the jar").

It was working with mysql-connector-java-5.1.32 but I've been forced to upgrade.

Pop!_OS 21.04, Eclipse 2021-09 (4.21.0), Tomcat 9.0.26, java-11-openjdk-amd64 (11.0.11)

The (almost) whole log console (whole was 3k too big):
