I have checked almost all the posts possible for the error that I'm getting. Ive edited almost all the ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES as given online. These are my environment variables :

ANT_HOME = C:\Ant9;C:\Tomcat7\lib\servlet-api.jar

CLASSPATH = C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24\bin;C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin;C:\Tomcat7\lib\servlet-api.jar;.

JAVA_HOME = C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24

PATH = C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24\bin

TOMCAT_HOME = C:\Tomcat7

You should use ; to separate classpath entries in Windows

javac -cp .;C:\Tomcat7\lib\servlet-api.jar DBConnnection.java.

but, you used a comma ,. Change comma to semicolon

Note : *nix family environments use colon : to seperate classpath entries
