I don't know about JWS, but with JRun you have to put the classes.zip
for of the Oracle JDBC driver in the proper configuration file, not just
the CLASSPATH. I believe the classpath is ignored and just the value of
the configuration file is used.

Subject: Problem with Oracle and Servlets - 2nd try


Hi all,
it seems my first posting of this didn't hit the
list...

I have been trying to make a call to an Oracle 8 database using a java
servlet via a JDBC driver. I have been using a version of Personal Oracle
that implements the Oracle 8 database.

I have managed to communicate to Oracle 8 from a simple console application,
however
I am having trouble when I tried to scale the application up to run from a
browser
which calls a servlet via the form post method and in turn serves up the
results
of an sql query as a html page. The web server I am using is Java Web
Server1.1.3 (JWS).

As far as I can tell, I have made all the correct references in my
CLASSPATH environment variable, and I have put my HTML in the
public_html directory of the JWS and the .class file of my servlet in
the servlets directory of the JWS, yet I am still trigerring the

ClassNotFoundException

exception when attempting to load the Oracle JDBC
driver (as per the line of code below).

Class.forName ("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");

 Can anyone help point me in the right direction here?

thanks


Daniel
