javax.naming.NamingException: Name is not bound to a Context

Question

My Listener Code is as follows

package org.javaimplant.newsfeed.Init;

import javax.naming.Context;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
import javax.naming.NameClassPair;
import javax.naming.NamingEnumeration;
import javax.servlet.ServletContext;
import javax.servlet.ServletContextEvent;
import javax.servlet.ServletContextListener;
import javax.sql.DataSource;

import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import org.javaimplant.newsfeed.Servlets.DataSourceServlet;
import org.javaimplant.newsfeed.data.DataAccessObject;

public class Init implements ServletContextListener {

    private Logger logger=Logger.getLogger(this.getClass());

    public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent sce) 
    {
        ServletContext servletContext = sce.getServletContext();
        try {
        contextInitialized2(servletContext);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
        logger.error("Initialization failed.", e);
        throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
        logger.debug("Initialization succeeded.");  
    }

    private void contextInitialized2(ServletContext servletContext)
    throws Exception 
    {
        InitialContext enc = new InitialContext();
        NamingEnumeration<NameClassPair> list = enc.list("java:comp/env/datasource");
        while (list.hasMore())
        {
          System.out.println(list.next().getName());
        }
        Context compContext = (Context) enc.lookup("java:comp/env");

        DataSource dataSource = (DataSource) compContext.lookup("datasource");

//      DataAccessObject.setDatasource(dataSource);
        DataSourceServlet.setDataSource(dataSource);
    }

    public void contextDestroyed(ServletContextEvent sce) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

    }

}

My context file is in project root which is as follows

<Context path="/newsfeed" docBase="D:\My Projects\springmvc\newsfeed\src\main\webapp">
<Resource   name="datasource"
                type="javax.sql.DataSource"
                auth="Container"
                maxActive="10"
                maxIdle="3"
                maxWait="10000"
                username="gaurav"
                password="gaurav"
                driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
                url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/publisher?autoReconnect=true" />
</Context>

Web.xml is as follows

<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC

 "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd" >

        <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
    </resource-ref>
</web-app>

Ok so Eclipse maintains its own separate server configuration in workspace you have to make changes there
