Hi all -
I've been trying to run a jar file - let's call it test.jar - that uses the Sybase jconn3.jar on a Unix system.
I have created a MANIFEST.MF file that has the following:
Class-Path: $SYBASE/jConnect-6_0/classes/jconn3.jar commons-net-1.3.0.jar
This gives a ClassNotFoundError. $SYBASE is the system variable that points to /opt/sybase13; I've also tried the following:
Class-Path: /opt/sybase13/jConnect-6_0/classes/jconn3.jar commons-net-1.3.0.jar
and
Class-Path: opt/sybase13/jConnect-6_0/classes/jconn3.jar commons-net-1.3.0.jar
However, if I copy the jconn3.jar file from the $SYBASE/jConnect-6_0/classes to the same directory as test.jar, and update my MANIFEST.MF to read as follows:
Class-Path: jconn3.jar commons-net-1.3.0.jar
The application runs as expected.
Now, I've been able to verify the jconn3.jar file works by copying it locally; my MANIFEST.MF file includes the path to my Main-Class, so that's not at issue here.
What do you think could be the problem? I've been looking at this thing for too long now. Thanks!
