AW> Hi Henry. My comments are preceded with AW>.
I upgraded my oracle client from 8i to 9i. I am trying to connect to 9ifs server running on different machine using Ifs api.
When i use the following url in IfsDefault.properties then i get the exception("ORA-12514: TNS:listener could not resolve SERVICE_NAME ") while creating LibrarySession
IFS.SERVICE.JDBC.DatabaseUrl=jdbc:oracle:oci8:@MYEST
Note: TNDPing works fine for MYTEST service. When i was using the oracle 8 client + drivers i have no problem conneting to 9ifs using the above urlAW> This problem should also manifest through SQL*Plus.
AW> You should compare your TNSNAMES.ora and your SQLNET.ora from Oracle8 versus Oracle9i, and see what the differences are. There may be a typo, or you may need to append ".world" to the end of your service name. Ask the SQL*Net people for more help on this.
Everything works file if use the following url in ifsDefault.properties file
IFS.SERVICE.JDBC.DatabaseUrl=jdbc:oracle:thin:@mydbmachine:1521:MYTEST.
My question is it ok to use thin driver instead of oci driver for ifs connection. Would it cause any problem when i move my java code to production machine and use the thin driver for ifs connection AW> Unfortunately, the thin driver is not certified. There are performance problems when retrieving large documents across the net, and there have been unconfirmed instability problems.
AW> Hope that helps.
