Hi all. Upon completing my most recent project I switched from jdk 1.3.1 to 1.4. However now I can't start Tomcat (4.0.1) because it can't find the Oracle jdbc driver class. When I first started using Oracle with Tomcat, I renamed the classes12.zip to classes12.jar. Now no matter where I put classes12.jar, I get the same error. I've tried lib, common/lib, server/lib, and webapps/<project>/web-inf/lib. FWIW, I have a servlet that runs at startup and tries to initialize a db connection pool. This used to work just fine and in fact still does with postgresql.jar. I even tried unzipping classes12.zip and actually jarring it up. No luck. I've traced the problem in a debugger far enough to know that the StandardClassLoader that should have classes12.jar in its scope doesn't. In fact, of all the stuff under common (classes and lib), it's missing classes12.jar and jdbc2_0-stdext.jar. Everything else is there. I see those 2 jars overlap somewhat, so I tried removing the latter to no avail. I don't have any other Tomcat installations and there aren't any jar files in multiple locations. I feel like I know everything about this problem but the answer.
