Actually you write the following code:

try{
    //The code in question
} catch (Exception e) {
    System.err.println("Exception: " + e.toString());
    e.printStrackTrace();
}

To really see the exception and the details.  I left out the details of the
stack trace because I was asking if there is some sort of permisions issue
with Class.forName() and Tomcat.  I will not send the stack trace until I
clean parts of it out.
