It seems like you do not have classes12.jar or ojdbc14.jar in your runtime path.

  • How are you running your program, is it through netbeans only, then netbean by default includes everything in compile-time classpath.
  • try importing oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver in your program to check, if you actually have access the the OracleDriver Class

    A ClassNotFoundException only means one thing. How do you run your application?

    Also classes12.jar is specifically when your application runs JDK 1.3 or below. Are you using a very old version of the JDK? If not, I'd get the latest Oracle driver.
