Matt,

I'm not sure about your comment that you changed the "type" attribute of 
the resource element to java.sql.DataSource, that is actually not 
correct, it should be javax.sql.DataSource.

The part about "/roller" is fine.  The path attribute of the context 
element defines the virtual location for the application within your 
servlet container, so by setting the path to /roller it means that's the 
location you will use to access Roller.  i.e. if you server is at 
http://myserver.com/ then the application should be running at 
http://myserver.com/roller/
