Help on mysql

[Abhishek Dharwadkar]

Hi Everyone,
I am using MySQL as a database and am trying to run a sample program to fetch and display data from a table...
I am getting the following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/aspectj/lang/Signature
at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method)
at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:164)
at com.sitepoint.ToDoList.<init>(ToDoList.java:12)
at com.sitepoint.ToDoTest.main(ToDoTest.java:6)

Is this a classpath problem. I am using eclipse ide to run the project. Also i am using the following driver: mysql-connector-java-3.1.13-bin-g.jar

Here is the driver and connection string i am using:
"com.mysql.jdbc.Driver", "jdbc:IJDB://localhost/TODO?user=db2admin&password=db2admin"

Please help me resolve.

Also when i try to run it from command i get the following:
The java class could not be loaded. java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError:

Thanks & Regards,
Abhi.

Abhi,
It sounds like there are two issues here.

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/aspectj/lang/Signature

This is telling you that some class uses AspectJ. This is an Aspect Oriented Programming framework. You need in your classpath in addition to the mysql jar.

The java class could not be loaded. java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError:

This may be telling you that you are using a jar file that was compiled against a version of java greater than the one you are running against.

Since these are both classpath issues and not specific to JDBC, I'm going to move this post to our Java in General forum.

Hey thanks,
I found the mistake. I was using the wrong jar file. When i used the correct one it worked.

Thanks a lot you guys,
Abhi.
