Answer 1

Do not modify the serverclasspath in WebServer 6.1.
Add the path to the driver to the classpathsuffix attribute.
change
classpathsuffix=""
to
classpathsuffix="/usroracle/driver/classes12.zip" (Unix)
or
classpathsuffix="C:/Oracle/driver/classes12.zip" ( Windows )
Replace the path in the example with the actual path to the driver file.
HTH,
