"No suitable driver was found" exception from javaobject

[shahzad]

Hi there, I am accessing this Java object from CF that interacts with the
database. I can't directly access the database using CF (long story) so I've to
use this java object but the problem is that when I access this java object, i
recevie the exception that 'No suitable driver was found' from the java object.
Obviously, its not finding the JDBC driver. but the problem is that, I've the
classpath for the jdbc driver setup and if i run that java object (using a java
test program from the command prompt), it works fine and can make a connection
to the database. I also have JDBC path set in the cf administrator but no luck
any suggestions? I am using CFMX7, Java 1.4, and oracle 9i thank you

any macromedia people have any idea?

thank you

i suppose there could be any number of things wrong, permissions on the JAR,
conflicts w/cf JDBC driver, etc. but i guess the simplest might be that you've
not added that JAR to the *cf* classpath. you can do this via cfadmin or dump
it into cfinstall/wwwroot/web-inf/lib dir.

dumping it into cfinstall/wwwroot/web-inf/lib worked. Thank you very much
