Re: No suitable error ?

[Mark Matthews]

Putting .jar files in .../jre/lib won't cause the JVM to pick them up automatically (you need to use jre/lib/ext).

The line that looks like this in your program is masking the error, because you're basically throwing away the exception that is caused when Class.forName() can't find the driver class:

try { Class.forName(this.driverName); } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { };

You might consider at least logging the exception message in cases like this, empty 'catch' blocks are usually problematic when it comes to debugging what's going wrong with your code ;)
