This is my first post here on this board, I did cross post since I was not sure if it would be more a Java or Oracle question. I am getting the error message in the subject and cannot locate the oracle.jdbc.driver path. Does anyone know what the location of this class is so I can add it to my classpath variable? I am using windows 2000 professional java j2sdk1.4.2_03 and tomcat-4.1.27 also oracle8i for the database. I have added a data source in the ODBC sources, within the control panels in addition to the other sources.

I have added a data source in the ODBC sources, within the control panels in addition to the other sources. The JDBC driver is in the directory %ORACLE_HOME%/jdbc/lib as the file classes12.jar or classes12.zip. I prefer to use an application specific CLASSPATH than setting the system wide CLASSPATH environment variable (ie. java -cp %ORACLE_HOME%/jdbc/lib/classes12.jar). --olaf Back to top smoo Guest Posted: Fri Jan 09, 2004 1:44 am    Post subject: Re: package oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver does not exits <snip> I have been able to add these items to my classpaths. I have added the following: c:oracleora81bin c:oracleora81jdbcclasses12.zip c:oracleora81jdbcclasses12_01.zip to the following paths: CLASSPATH PATH Under system and also user options or entries. My application will now compole but it will not run once i have tomcat running. the error message from tomcat indicates the error at the bottom, and the text in that error seems to indicate that tomcat cannot find this class either. ======================================================================== Apache Tomcat/4.0.1 - HTTP Status 500 - Internal Server Error

You probably need to add these to the classpath of Tomcat. I bet there is a config file or maybe just some startup file where you can do this. -- Galen Boyer Back to top Olaf Heimburger Guest Posted: Fri Jan 09, 2004 8:03 pm    Post subject: Re: package oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver does not exits smoo <smoo (AT) ah (DOT) no.com> writes: Quote: Under system and also user options or entries.

First remove the settings from the global CLASSPATH. It's just plain ugly and only leads to errors. There are three choices: 1. Include the classes12.zip in the WEB-INF/lib directory of your WAR file 2. Copy the classes12.zip to the WEB-INF/lib directory of your application tree in the Tomcat installation 3. Copy the classes12.zip to the $TOMCAT/lib directory and configure a DataSource (the best solution) BTW, I hope you're not using DriverManager.registerDriver() in your application. It's not allowed in the J2EE specs and also a bad practice. Better use a DataSource and configure the database settings in the server. --olaf Back to top Georg Stahl Guest Posted: Sun Jan 11, 2004 2:32 pm    Post subject: Re: package oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver does not exits Olaf Heimburger wrote: Quote: smoo <smoo (AT) ah (DOT) no.com> writes: Under system and also user options or entries.
