Problem with Wicket and MySQL

[Mihai Bogdan Eugen]

Hello,

First of all, I am kind of new with this Wicket, actually, I am using
it for only a couple of days.
Secondly, I don't even know if I post this in the right place, so I
appologize if I had made such a mistake.

Now, the problem that made write this post:

I am working on a small JAVA + MySQL project, and by chance, when
browsing through Apache Software, I have discovered Wicket. I kind of
got the feeling with it thanks to the tutorials, but now I try to
integrate something related to MySQL in it:

I have a class Catalog, :

public class Catalog
{
       private ArrayList<Product> products;

       public Catalog()
       {
               this.products = new ArrayList<Product>();
               this.populateCatalog();
       }
       private void populateCatalog()
       {
           Connection connection = null;
               Statement statement = null;
               ResultSet result_set = null;

               String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/proiect";
               String user = "root";
               String password = "";

           try
           {
               Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");

               connection      = (Connection)
DriverManager.getConnection(url,
user, password);
               statement       = (Statement)
connection.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,
ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
               result_set      = statement.executeQuery("SELECT * from
produse
ORDER BY id_produs");

               while(result_set.next())
               {
                       this.products.add(new Product(
result_set.getInt("id_produs"),  result_set.getString("nume_poza") ));
               }

               releaseResources(connection, statement, result_set);
           }
           catch (SQLException exception)
           {
               System.out.println("Eroare
=>"+exception.getLocalizedMessage());
           }
               catch (ClassNotFoundException exception)
               {
                       exception.printStackTrace();
               }
       }

       private static void releaseResources(Connection connection, Statement
statement, ResultSet result_set) throws SQLException
       {
               result_set.close();
               statement.close();
               connection.close();

       }
}

When I "run" the site, i get an error at line
"Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");" from the file up above. I
don;t know how to copy-paste the output on the Tomcat Servlet Engine
(oh, yes, I am running it on Tomcat), it is embedded into a JAVA
window... Anywya, the next line in the stack trace, besides
ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
is "at
org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java);

Any help it is highly apreciated, and thanks for your understanding.
