Hi all,

I am new in JSP and I'm really stuck on this for a very long time. I have this code to load the jdbc driver :<% Class.forName(SQL.jdbc.driver.SQLDriver); %> but it results in this error. Is it correct to write in this way?

Generated servlet error:
C:\Tomcat4\work\Standalone\localhost\_\dbConnect$jsp.java:67: Undefined variable, class, or package name: SQL
Class.forName(SQL.jdbc.driver.SQLDriver);
^

Currently using SQL server. So can anyone please help?

Thanks.

one possible reason is that you didn't include the necessary jar files in the classpath.

well, i might be wrong but no harm checking your classpath.

Hi,

CLASSPATH? you means the path where jdbc driver located?

Ok, lets say the driver now in the correct path so how am i going to import it? <% Class.forName(&quot;JdbcOdbc.SQL&quot %>? is it correct?

Try this:

Class.forName(&quot;SQL.jdbc.driver.SQLDriver&quot;

Good luck!
