I wrote a Java Servlet program but when I run it, it was showing the Exception
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
My code is
package skypark;

Class.forName(dcn);
return DriverManager.getConnection(url, usname, pass);

When I give the
java oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
command in command prompt, it was showing following lines
Error: Main method not found in class oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver, please define the main method as:
public static void main(String[] args)
Have you copied classes12.jar in lib folder of your web application and set the classpath in eclipse.
Right-click project in Package explorer
Build path -> Add external archives…
Select your ojdbc6.jar archive
Press OK
Or
Go through this link and read and do carefully.
The library should be now referenced in the “Referenced Librairies” under the Package explorer.
Now try to run your program again.
