It seems your context.xml has com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver.class mentioned. You should not mention .class there. Just mention com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver. This is the fully qualified class name. If you add .class at the end, then Driver becomes the package, and it tries to search for a driver class by name class in the Driver package, which it won't find.

So,

driverClassName="com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver"
