No no,
I got the driver classes12.jar from the net. I was just saying that it can be full unzipped without any problems, to prove the integrity of the file.
Other then that, nothing else has been done to the file.
Cheers

Im having a great deal of trouble getting tomcat to see my OracleDriver for the JDBC class. I have tried putting it the file classes.jar in both my tomcat/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.29/common/lib/ directory and my WEB-INF/lib directory in my docroot, and nothing seems to work. It seems to pick up the MySQL drivers just fine, but when I stick in the Oracle Driver is comes up with:
Caught in processRequest
java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: oracle/jdbc/driver/OracleDriver.


From what you are writing, I get the impression that you packed the jdbc driver jar _into_ another jar called classes.jar and placed this second jar in your WEB-INF/lib directory.
If this is indeed the case, that's your problem.
A setup like this does not work, because the classloader does not see jars inside jars.
You have to place the jar file containing the _package_ oracle.jdbc.driver in WEB-INF/lib, not a jar containing that jar.
