hallo everybody
i wrote a jtable to visualize the data in a sql-table. running the application within eclipse all worked well, but when i create a runnable jar-file and start it from the shell with java -jar i got: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

all classes and even the mysql-connector-java-5.1.8-bin are in the same path where i start java -jar myapp.jar. i'm using java se1.6 and eclipse galileo.

i told eclipse to copy the required libraries into a sub-folder next to the generated JAR, so eclipse created the folder but there's nothing in. but even if i copy the jar mysql-connector to this folder the application didn't start. need help.
