java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException cannot be cast to weblogic.management.scripting.ScriptException

I colud not able to find the exact root cause but able to resolve the issue "Undo All Changes" from weblogic console and re-exectiong the script.

Steps to resolve the issue

Login to weblogic admin console
Verify whether any changes are pending to be activated.
Perform Activate Changes or Undo All Changes


Re-execute the script, this time script will create the datasource successfully.
