My data source definition in server.xml as follow;

<GlobalNamingResources>
        <Resource name="jdbc/datasource" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
                  username="username" password="password"
                  driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver"
                  url="jdbc:oracle:thin:blablabla" />
</GlobalNamingResources>

Also in context.xml as follow;

<ResourceLink name="jdbc/datasource"
      global="jdbc/datasource"
      type="javax.sql.DataSource"/>
