I have a JRuby project that connects to an Oracle database using JDBC via Oracle's ojdbc6.jar library. The code works well when run using JRuby 1.6.6 on Windows 7 and JRuby 1.6.5.1 on OS X Lion. I'm trying to create a standalone JAR file using warbler. After running warble jar it includes the ojdbc6.jar but for some reason it does not load/access it. It seems the internal classpath is incorrect or I'm not configuring something right.
Following directory structure exists.
C:\my_jruby_project\bin\my_jruby_file.rb
C:\my_jruby_project\lib\java\ojdbc6.jar
C:\my_jruby_project\Gemfile
C:\my_jruby_project\Gemfile:
source :rubygems
gem 'activerecord', '>= 3.2.3'
gem 'activerecord-jdbc-adapter', '>= 1.2.2'
gem 'ruport', '>= 1.6.3'
C:\my_jruby_project\bin\my_jruby_file.rb
require 'ruport'
require 'java'
java_import 'oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver'
java_import 'java.sql.DriverManager'
....
After generating the JAR file:
jruby -S warble jar
I execute the jar and get the following error:
C:\my_jruby_project>java -jar my_jruby_project.jar
NameError: cannot load Java class oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver

The generated JAR includes the lib/java/ojdbc6.jar but it seems internal file or path pointers are not configure correctly.
Appreciate any assistance. Thanks!
You may want to setup
$CLASSPATH
inside your ruby code. Something similar to this:I use some extra jars in my jruby on rails project and have the following code in my
environment.rb
in order for the.jars
to be accessible in my.war
deployment:
