Version 4 Datasource with WAS 5.0.2?

[eric mcentee]

Hello,
The JDBC driver I am using is a non supported type 3 or 4 (I have both). It has problems with the J2C connector architecture for a managed connnection pool.
As a work around, the JDBC provider has asked if I can try using a Version 4 Datasource through the Admin console.
If I try to deploy my WAR as is, and test it, I get the following :
(I haven't inlcuded the whole stack trace since the message is pretty good)

If I try to change the servlet dtd to the 2.2 spec, I get this

Has anyone had experience trying use a V4 datasource with a servlet in V5 of WAS? Or is the workaround I was given just not going to work?
Thank you,
Eric
