ClassNotFoundException

Hi All,

I am having trouble getting a connection to the database.

When i try and connect, i get the exception ClassNotFoundException com.informix.jdbc.IfxDriver.

I know that the ifx driver is in my lib directory and loaded on startup.

The line of code it fails on is:

Class.forName("com.informix.jdbc.IfxDriver");

Curiously, if i remove this line of code - the connection works.

I am using this in a web app running under Websphere 6.1

Any help would be appreciated.
