Unable to use -classpath

Hi,

I am using this command:

java -classpath /home/$USER/Projects/Lab/tika/classes/ -jar
./tika-app/target/tika-app-1.17.jar

In /home/$USER/Projects/Lab/tika/classes/ I have:

sqlite-jdbc-3.19.3.jar

But I still get this error:

Mar 03, 2018 1:48:06 PM
org.apache.tika.config.InitializableProblemHandler$3
handleInitializableProblem
WARNING: org.xerial's sqlite-jdbc is not loaded.
Please provide the jar on your classpath to parse sqlite files.

I even added this:

classes/org/xerial/sqlite-jdbc-3.19.3.jar

I am out of ideas.

Java ignores -classpath if you also specify -jar

Java only reads classes from a directory on a classpath by default, not 
jars, so the jar in here will be ignored


So, you need to stop using -jar if you want -classpath to be used, and to 
tell Java to load your other jars by either giving a wildcard on the 
classpath line or explicitly specifying all of them
