Hi everyone,

I am trying to produce a web services which interacts with a mysql database. I use connector/j to do this, but when I try to call one of my web service operations, I get an error "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Class Not found : org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver".
The connector/j jar is in $JAVA-HOME/lib/ext.

The code for the database connection works in a simple java class (just compiled using javac without any option), but not in my web service.

I'm not a Java guru so I've certainly missed something.

Thanks,
Vincent

PS: the code that does not work is "Class.forName ("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();"
