facing issue when using JDBC in TomCat 7 with Struts
- by Chethu2288
Am developing a web application using Struts 2 where am trying to insert some values into my local MySql database. The code for connecting and accessing database works fine in console application. but its giving "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" exception when i tried the same code in Struts. Kindly help me on this.
Connection conn = null;
String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/";
String dbName = "testdatabase";
String driver = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
try
{
Class.forName(driver).newInstance();
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url+dbName,"root","root");
Statement statement=conn.createStatement();
System.out.println("HelloWorld.execute()");
int i= statement.executeUpdate("INSERT INTO testTable VALUES('15','Lucky')");
System.out.println("res: "+i);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
System.out.println(e);
//setMessage(e.getMessage());
}
Awaiting your response.
