I am trying to develop a database/jsp/servlet application in Eclipse (Europa 3.3.1.1). I have other db applications on the workstation and use classes12.zip (or classes12.jar) for them with no problem.

Classes12.zip is one of the libraries in the project. The webserver is Tomcat 5.5. HOWEVER, the jsp front end calls this code:

<form action="SQLGateway" method="post">
<textarea name="sqlStatement" cols="60" rows="8">${sqlStatement}
</textarea><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Execute">
</form>

and the servlet does this:

try
{
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
}

but while the code passes validation, this line raises the ClassNotFound exception. I've removed classes12.zip and added it back; problem occurs whether I'm running the code within Eclipse or from cPanel®

Any help is GREATLY APPRECIATED.
