Cannot connect to database using JDBC

Question

Hello!
I am trying to connect to my local database using this script:
import java.sql.*;
public class test{
public static void main (String[] args){
  try
    DriverManager.registerDriver (new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:orcl","scott","tiger");
    Statement StmtPersoane = conn.createStatement();
    ResultSet CrsPersoane =StmtPersoane.executeQuery("select p.* from personal p");
    int jMarca = 0;
    while(CrsPersoane.next()){
    jMarca = CrsPersoane.getInt("marca");
    System.out.println(jMarca);
    CrsPersoane.close();
    StmtPersoane.close();
    conn.close();
  catch(SQLException e)
    e.printStackTrace();
}When compiling i am getting this error: Error(7,58): cannot access class oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver; file oracle\jdbc\driver\OracleDriver.class not found
I have set a CLASSPATH enviroment variable with value : D:\oracle10g\product\10.1.0\Db_1\jdbc\lib\ojdbc14.jar
Please provide some hints. Thanks in advace !

Problem solved with the connection, but now i'm getting another error when i am trying to parse an error. Here is the code a little bit modified:
import java.sql.*;
import java.text.*;
import java.text.ParseException;
import java.util.*;
public class test{
public static void main (String[] args){
  try
    DriverManager.registerDriver (new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:orcl","scott","tiger");
            Statement StmtPersoane;
            StmtPersoane = conn.createStatement();
            ResultSet CrsPersoane =StmtPersoane.executeQuery("select marca from personal");
            int jMarca;
            jMarca = 0;
java.util.Date dataJava = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("dd/mm/yyyy").parse("04/10/2006");
java.sql.Date dataSql = new java.sql.Date(dataJava.getTime());
System.out.println("Data: "+dataSql);
    System.out.println("Angajatii sunt:"); 
            while(CrsPersoane.next()){
    jMarca = CrsPersoane.getInt("marca");
    System.out.println(jMarca);
    CrsPersoane.close();
    StmtPersoane.close();
    conn.close();
  catch(SQLException e)
    e.printStackTrace();
}The error:
Error(24,81): unreported exception: java.text.ParseException; must be caught or declared to be thrown
Any ideas ?
