java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

最近在学 JavaWeb ，在用 Servlet +Jdbc 时遇到以下错误，调试了代码许久，都没发现代码错误，最后最后最后既然是没有将mysql-connector-java-5.1.38-bin.jar导入到tomcat的lib目录下面！ ！！！

必须把mysql-connector-java-5.1.38-bin.jar导入到tomcat的lib目录下面！

在java项目中，只需要引入mysql-connector-java-5.1.38-bin.jar就可以运行java项目。

在web项目中，当Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");时myeclipse是不会去查找字符串，不会去查找驱动的。所以只需要把mysql-mysql-connector-java-5.1.38-bin.jar 拷贝到tomcat下lib目录就可以了。
