I am trying to write a jdbc application for the first time and I can't seem
to connect to the database. I think my code is write. I suspect that my
problem is in my run script. PrintJob is the name of the class I am running
which wants to access the database. Anyone have any suggestions?
I am using the jdbc6.5-1.1.jar downloaded from the postgresql jdbc web site.
here is the error I'm receiving:
Exception: java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver
java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:111)
atjava.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:134) at PrintJob.ConnectDatabase(PrintJob.java:186)
at PrintJob.main(PrintJob.java:496)
here is my run script:
#! /bin/bash
# NOTE
# The environment variable JDKTOP must be set to point
# to the top of the jdk directory before running this
# script
CLASSPATH=.:$JDKTOP/lib:../jar/jdbc6.5-1.1.jar
# the host name must be followed by a slash
DBURL=jdbc:postgresql://*.*.*.*/
DBUSER=******
# since the password is stored in this script, you want to insure
permissions
# are adequate to keep prying eyes away
DBPASSWD=*******
# set VERBOSE to blank if you want to turn the PrintJob server's verbose
mode off
VERBOSE=-verbose
cd ./class
java -Djdbc.drivers=postgresql.Driver PrintJob -dburl $DBURL -dbuser
$DBUSER -dbpasswd $DBPASSWD $VERBOSE
cd ..
