netbeans not finding zxJDBC driver for jython projects

I'm trying to connect to a DB via the zxJDBC package for jython in netbeans IDE. I already specified the path to the zxJDBC.jar and the driver:

see the snapshot here

and keep receiving the error message:

zxJDBC.DatabaseError: driver [com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver] not found

This is the code that I'm typing:

from com.ziclix.python.sql import zxJDBC    
conn = zxJDBC.connect("jdbc:sqlserver://SERVERNAME;DatabaseName=DBNAME;","USER","PASSWORD","com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver")
cursor = conn.cursor()
cursor.execute("select * from TABLE1")

for row in cursor:
    print('row = %r' % (row,))

The python platform I'm using is jython 2.5.1

Probably is related to your CLASSPATH values. Jython needs to be related to the location of your JDBC drivers. In my case using Jython 2.7.0 in Linux, I review inside the interpeter, what are the CLASSPATH locations that Jython search by default:

Type into the Jython interpeter:

Jython 2.7.0 (default:9987c746f838, Apr 29 2015, 02:25:11) 
[Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (Oracle Corporation)] on java1.8.0_151
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path
['', '/opt/jython/Lib', '__classpath__', '__pyclasspath__/', '/opt/jython/Lib/site-packages']
>>> sys.path.append("/opt/jython/jdbc/derby.jar")
>>> sys.path.append("/opt/jython/jdbc/derbyclient.jar")
>>> sys.path
['', '/opt/jython/Lib', '__classpath__', '__pyclasspath__/', '/opt/jython/Lib/site-packages', '/opt/jython/jdbc/derby.jar', '/opt/jython/jdbc/derbyclient.jar']
>>>

The way that I found to resolve this problem, is call the driver's directory with the files, to the sys.path.

Example:

Jython 2.7.0 (default:9987c746f838, Apr 29 2015, 02:25:11) 
[Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (Oracle Corporation)] on java1.8.0_151
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path
['', '/opt/jython/Lib', '__classpath__', '__pyclasspath__/', '/opt/jython/Lib/site-packages']
>>> sys.path.append("/opt/jython/jdbc/derby.jar")
>>> sys.path.append("/opt/jython/jdbc/derbyclient.jar")
>>> sys.path
['', '/opt/jython/Lib', '__classpath__', '__pyclasspath__/', '/opt/jython/Lib/site-packages', '/opt/jython/jdbc/derby.jar', '/opt/jython/jdbc/derbyclient.jar']
>>> from com.ziclix.python.sql import zxJDBC
>>> d, u, p, v = "jdbc:derby://localhost:1527//opt/apache-derby/derbydata/derbytutor/mundialito", "APP", "APP", "org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver"
>>> db = zxJDBC.connect(d, u, p, v)
>>> c = db.cursor()
>>> c.execute("SELECT * FROM COUNTRY_FIFA_RANK")
>>> for a in c.fetchall():
...     print a
... 
(1, u'Germany', u'GER', datetime.date(2017, 6, 12), 1, 1, None, None, None)
(2, u'Brazil', u'BRA', datetime.date(2017, 6, 12), 2, 2, None, None, None)
(3, u'Portugal', u'POR', datetime.date(2017, 6, 12), 3, 3, None, None, None)
>>> c.close()
>>> db.close()
