thanks everyone for your reply. The wildcard is recognised by the shell (echo /path/* works, showing all the files in the directory) but as Ron said, I can't use wildcards for classpath. I tryed changing "/*" with "/derbyrun.jar" but nothing new happened, same error shows
@bryan reading the last link you posted, about classpath usage, I had some doubts about my server startup, so here is the entire command I run for the server: java -classpath :/home/user/app/lib/derbyrun.jar:/home/user/app/shared/ -Djava.rmi.server.codebase=file:///home/user/app/shared/ -Dtmp.impl.codebase=file:///home/user/app/shared/ -Djava.security.policy=/home/user/app/server/tmp/setup.policy -Dtmp.classeserver=tmp.AuthServer -Dtmp.policy=/home/user/app/server/tmp/group.policy tmp.Setup my doubt is on this part of "Setting the class path" link, maybe because I read the windows version and not the linux one :D (http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/windows/classpath.html) C:> java -classpath C:\java\MyClasses utility.myapp.Cool When the app runs, the JVM uses the class path settings to find any other classes defined in the utility.myapp package that are used by the Cool class. as you can see I run the server setup in the tmp package. Reading the article mentioned before, what I understood is that all the classes my Setup needs are searched in the classpath linked by the command, but in a tmp folder. Am I wrong? thanks (hope you understand my english-way-to-explain) -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Derby-%3A-No-suitable-driver-found-for-jdbc%3Aderby%3Adb-create%3Dtrue-tp30335341p30347946.html Sent from the Apache Derby Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
