So it appears Tomcat can't find the OracleDriver class. Verify that Tomcat has read access to the jar you placed in Tomcat's lib directory, and that the jar does in fact contain that class, and that you haven't also placed that jar in the webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory. (You must not have the same class in more than one place in a given branch of the classloader hierarchy.) > Does it appear the Oracle driver class and tomcat-dbcp jars have > classes that are conflicting? No. Tomcat renames its copy of the commons-dbcp classes to avoid any such issues; there's no evidence of any conflict issues in the stack trace. Have you changed conf/catalina.properties, by any chance? - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
