Subject Error connecting Database
Author Andres Eguiguren
Hi everybody:

I am using Eclipse and Firebird 1.5

Inside Eclipse I don't have any problems connecting to database.

But, when I create .jar file and access it I receive the following
error:

ClassNotFoundException: org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDriver
SQLException: No suitable driver

I checked .classpath and has the following:
<classpathentry exported="true" kind="lib"
path="hibernate/firebirdsql-full.jar"/>

I have a folder named hibernate and inside it firebirdsql-full.jar
file.

File structure is:
\if\if.jar
\if\hibernate\firebirdsql-full.jar

the code I am using is:

String DriverBDD = "org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDriver";

String url = "jdbc:firebirdsql://192.168.0.100/
\\database\\informacionzonal.fdb";

try {
Class.forName("org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDriver");

} catch(java.lang.ClassNotFoundException e) {
System.err.print("ClassNotFoundException: ");
System.err.println(e.getMessage());
}

try {
con = DriverManager.getConnection(url,"SYSDBA", "masterkey");
}
catch(SQLException ex) {
System.err.println("SQLException: " + ex.getMessage());
}
//end makeConnection

Again: from inside Eclipse all is Ok., but with .jar file it doesn't
work.

Please, help me.

Thanks in advance for you help.
