I Installed postgresql and its driver which is "postgresql-9.3-1102.jdbc41.jar".

And my directory seems like : 

> SQL
>     myJDBC.java
>     postgresql-9.3-1102.jdbc41.jar

I have tried :

javac -cp postgresql-9.3-1102.jdbc41.jar myJDBC.java
java -cp postgresql-9.3-1102.jdbc41.jar myJDBC

It compiles fine but when I try to execute it, I get error which is : 

Error: Could not find or load main class myJDBC

What am I missing ?

The current directory needs to be added to the runtime classpath

java -cp .:postgresql-9.3-1102.jdbc41.jar myJDBC

  • There ought to be a letter 's' in org.postgreql.Driver, check your code Commented Nov 7, 2014 at 16:43
