Can anyone help me with the exception, I was trying to run my servlet program but it is throws this exception:

Any help would be appreciated.

In able to rectify this error, you need to add the classes12.jar files in the lib folder of the web application and then you need to set the path. In able to do that, follow these steps:

1. Go to your project and the package explorer.

2. Click on the build path and then add external archives.

3. Select your files and then click Ok.

I hope this will help.
