Shared Services API - Error when getting datasource weblogic/pool/PooledConnectionDataSource

Question

Hello,
I have a program that connects to shared services using Java APIs. The code is usually working fine on other environment.
This one is on EPM version 11.1.2.1 and I get an error after this procedure --> system = CSSSystem.getInstance(context, "");

I guess it is something with the SQLServer driver.Do you have any ideas?
My ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_INSTANCE are set correctly.
Thanks in advance,

Hello,
I finally got it working!
I added the weblogic libraries located under EPM/Middleware/wlserver_10.3/server/lib, and now it works fine.
It was a pain to find it out, because the error message did not specify that it was a missing library..
Anyway, if it helps, here is the list of external libraries I am using:
"wlssapi.jar"
"wlssapi-internal.jar"
"wlss-datatier.jar"
"wlss-descriptor-binding.jar"
"wlssdiameter.jar"
"wlssechosvr.jar"
"wlss-mbeaninfo.jar"
"WLSSSecurityProviders.jar"
"wlthint3client.jar"
"wlw-langx.jar"
"wlw-langx-ja.jar"
"wlw-langx-ko.jar"
"wlw-langx-zh_CN.jar"
"wlw-langx-zh_TW.jar"
"wlw-wsee-soapfault.jar"
"xmlparserv2_sans_jaxp_services.jar"
"xmlrpc-2.0.1.jar"
"audit-client.jar"
"castor-1.0.5.jar"
"com.bea.core.apache.commons.pool_1.3.0.jar"
"commons-lang-2.1.jar"
"css.jar"
"dms.jar"
"interop-sdk.jar"
"ojdl.jar"
"quartz.jar"
"regexp.jar"
"registry-api.jar"
"scheduler_ces.jar"
"sqljdbc.jar"
"wf_ces_utils.jar"
"wf_eng_agent.jar"
"wf_eng_api.jar"
"wf_eng_server.jar"
"wlcipher.jar"
"wlclient.jar"
"wlcommons-logging.jar"
"wlconnector.jar"
"wldb2.jar"
"wldeploy.jar"
"wlinformix.jar"
"wl-j2ee-client.jar"
"wljarbuilder.jar"

Thank you all for your help.
