title: Class.forName(com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver) not working in Liberty8.5
body: <p>I'm trying to configure an application which is currently running in websphere 8.0 to websphere liberty. This application is having creating jdbc connection using:</p>
  <pre><code>Driver DB2Driver = (java.sql.Driver) Class.forName(&quot;com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver&quot;).newInstance();
  </code></pre>
  <p>This is working perfectly in websphere full profile. But not in liberty. I tried creating a library to point to &quot;C:/sqllib/java&quot; directory which contains the db2java.zip. But its still not working. The errors I'm getting is:</p>
  <pre><code>[err] java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver
  [err]     at com.ibm.ws.classloading.internal.AppClassLoader.findClassCommonLibraryClassLoaders(AppClassLoader.java:403)
  [err]     at [internal classes] 
  </code></pre>
  <p>Please help.</p>
  <p>Thanks in advance,</p>
