You should not have to unzip your classes12.zip file. This file is, for all intents and purposes, a jar file.
Looking at your error message, I'm willing to bet that the problem is in your security.policy file that tomcat is using. Most likely, it is not allowing you to load classes that are in some other path. The quick fix is to copy the classes12.zip into your tomcat/lib directory. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eric Strain" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, November 13, 2001 5:36 PM Subject: Re: cannot execute binary file | Hi: | I hate to be simplistic, but, is your classes12.zip file still compressed? | If so just unzip it to a safe location and alter your classpath | | | >From: "Noble Long" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | >Reply-To: "Tomcat Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | >To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | >Subject: cannot execute binary file | >Date: Tue, 13 Nov 2001 14:41:47 -0600 | > | >I am using the Oracle jdbc thin client in my application.
