Java mysql OK with Terminal but not OK with Apache local web server

Question

With terminal I have :
CLASSPATH=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Classes/:/Library/Java/Extensions/:./
SUDO_GID=20
SECURITYSESSIONID=210800
_=/usr/bin/printenv
127:/Library/WebServer/Documents/Java root# java TestMySQL
2006-05-21 13:39:00.0 ************************************************** = OK
127:/Library/WebServer/Documents/Java root#
import java.sql.*;
* mysql-connector-java-3.1.12-bin.jar
*   % javac /Library/WebServer/Documents/Java/TestMySQL.java
*   % java TestMySQL
public class TestMySQL {
        public static void main(String argv[]) throws Exception {
                // Load the driver class
                Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver");
1                //Class theClass = null;
2               //try {
3                //    theClass = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().loadClass("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver");
4                //}
5                //catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
6                //    theClass = getClass().getClassLoader().loadClass("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver");
7                //}
                Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(
                        "jdbc:mysql:///test",
                Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
                ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT now();");
                while (rset.next()) {
                        System.out.println(rset.getString(1));
                // Close result set, statement and DB connection
                rset.close();
                stmt.close();
                conn.close();
}I have a simple TestMySQL.html file with applet TestMySQL.class in it.
Nothing but "Applet TestMySQL not inited"
When I uncomment the try/catch lines (lines 1 to 7) , java compiler generate an error... near getClass().getClassLoader().loadClass("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver");
With "Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver");" no problem.
Running MacOS X 10.3.9, Apache/1.3.33 (Darwin) PHP/4.4.1 mod_ssl/2.8.24 OpenSSL/0.9.7i and JVM 1.4.2_09
Thanks for help.
P.S. This my first approach to java/mysql but I would like to see this short program running on my local web server ...
Thanks.

hi :-)
can you post the stack trace?
im not sure what is causing the error because of less info,
but have you tried to copy the driver of mysql to tomcat lib folder?
