I'm not sure who to send this too, but I've read much
documentation and I can't figure out why I can't get a jdbc
driver or two to work in my servlets


The first few lines of service
are

    public void service (
        HttpServletRequest      request,
        HttpServletResponse     response
    ) throws ServletException, IOException
    {
        PrintWriter             out;
        String                  title = "Simple Servlet Output";
        
        String dead = "default";

        try { 
                Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver"); 
                Connection con =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://db.domain.com:3306/AMR?user=root&password=");
                System.out.println("Connected to the db");
                dead = "but I'm not dead yet";
        }
        catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { 
                System.out.println("Couldn't find class: " +
e.getMessage()); 
                dead = "died- ClassNotFoundException";

        }
        catch (SQLException se){ 
                System.out.println("SQL Exception caught: " + se); 
                dead = "died- SQLException";
        } 



If I print dead it is always "died-ClassNotFoundException, 
yet if I
do
import org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver

and verbose on compile I get this:
why won't forName find it?

[loaded
c:\java\mm.mysql.jdbc-1.2a\mysql.jar(org/gjt/mm/mysql/Driver.class) in 94
ms]

sorry to send this to this list, it is probably not a jserv problem.

TIA
Steve
