JAVA-java-lang-ClassNotFoundException-org-postgresql-Driver-Android
I am running the Eclipse on the Windows operating system.
I downloaded JDBC4, added it to my build path using Project>Properties>add External JAR, browsed for the file, it worked (.classpath file shows the correct lib path).
The package shows in my Referenced Libraries folder, so I am continuing the tutorial.
import java.sql.Connection; import java.sql.DriverManager; import java.sql.PreparedStatement; import java.sql.SQLException; .... public void open () { try { Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver"); } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } try { conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, username, password); } catch (SQLException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } }
I think it would be as simple as that but I get hit with this big long stack trace starting with
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.postgresql.Driver
I tried include org.postgresql.*; but that didn't help either. I had also tried the JDBC3 but no luck there either.
I'm very new to the Android, Postgresql and Web development, so a simple answer would be appreciated.
