Here's the sample config file from the Ibator documentation: http://ibatis.apache.org/docs/tools/ibator/configreference/xmlconfig.html
<http://ibatis.apache.org/docs/tools/ibator/configreference/xmlconfig.html>Note that <classPathEntry> is not a child of <jdbcConnection> - rather it is a child of <ibatorConfiguration>. You've probably been reading some old documentation for the prior version of the tool. BTW - welcome to iBATIS!
