Configuration of JDBC drivers for ocnnecting from BOE to Oracle

HI all,
I am trying to configure jbdc drivers in solaris for connecting BOE 3.1 sP2 to oracle 10g database.
issue is not able to create connection in universe designer using jdbc drivers
i couldnt get the exact info on this, please provide me the steps for connecting to oracle through jbdc drivers, Thanks,
Thanks
Ram

I am now up and running.  Several tips were found on both Adobe and Oracle sites that were helpful. Here is a brief summary of the steps:
Step 1, download* the Oracle Database11G release 2 Client for Microsoft Windows x64. (not the Instant Client). Follow the instructions provided on the download site. Select just the items you need from the custom install form.
Step 2, add your datasources using the Oracle Net Configuration Assistant**.  Select Local Net Service Name Config. Follow the prompts, answer the questions.
Step 3, add your datasources on Windows 2008 Server with Administrative Tools Datasources. Similar to step 2.
Step 4, in CF10 Administrator set up your datasources. The first thing to do is set your Class Path to the location of the jdbc .jar files.  When you configured the Oracle installation you specified the location of the files. Go there and look for the\jdbc\lib folder. It contains the jar files for your drivers. Example:  C:\\Oracle\home\jdbc\lib\.  Now add your datasources. Select Other from the drivers drop-down list. This may be the tricky part. You will need the database information for connecting, such as host name, port, user, password, etc.  The connect url will look like: jdbc:oracle:thin@hostname:portnumber:servicename. Class: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver  Name: whatever
* download from:  oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/112010-win64soft-094461.html
** This utility should be selected as an item to install from step 1.

  • JDBC Drivers for Weblogic to connect to Oracle 11g database

    WebLogic Server Version: 10.3.6.0
    We had Oracle 10g database that we were connecting using JDBC data source (driver : Oracle's Driver (Thin XA) for instance connections; versions:9.0.1 and later). We migrated our database to 11g now. Is it still the best driver to connect to 11g database or should we change it to something else?

    why not using an 11 driver to connect to db 11g?
    maybe the following posting helps although is focuses on db 12c:

  • JDBC drivers for MSSQL 7.0

    Hi,
    We have installed JDBC drivers for MSSQL by following guide "how to install and configure a JMS and JDBC adapter" and they are "msutil.jar, mssqlserver.jar, msbase.jar". Our platform is NETweaver 2004s PI 7.0 on UNIX and Oracle.
    The interfaces are working fine when we are sending data to MSSQL 2000, but when we are sending data to MSSQL 7.0, we are getting errors incompatible drivers.
    Are there seperate drivers MSSQL 7.0 or we need to have different set of drives. Checked Note 639702 and as per note we should be able to find drivers installed on system at
    - (NetWeaver 2004s:)
    usr\sap\<SAPSID>\SYS\exe\<NUC|UC>\Platform\mssjdbc
    I did not find the 'Platform' in my system at the above mentioned path.
    Can anyone help us with this issue.
    Thank You,
    Praveen

    Hi Praveen,
    As I know, there is no JDBC driver MSSQL 7.0, so there is no direct way to get access to it.
    But there is another way to do it if you have access to a MSSQL 2000 or above server.
    In MSSQL 2000 you can create a linked server to the MSSQL 7.0, and then you can use XI to get access to MSSQL 7.0 tables.

  • No JDBC drivers for Linux??

    On the Oracle Tech Net site, it seems I can only download
    JDBC drivers for NT or for Solaris... no linux...
    Where can I get Oracle JDBC drivers for 8.0.5 for Linux?
    Thanks!
    Greg

    The thin driver will work from either download (classes111.zip)
    since it is pure java. There is no OCI driver for Linux that I
    know of.

  • JDBC Drivers for Linux

    How come Oracle's web site only has downloads for NT and Solaris. Where do I get the latest JDBC driver for Linux?

    You should be able to use clases111.zip from AIX or NT with your
    Linux client, just copy the file, and add it to your CLASSPATH.
    I'm using classes111.zip from AIX (8.1.5) on NT and Win95
    clients.
    This will work for the thin client, the oci8 needs SQL*Net
    (and some more support libs.) installed to work

  • Appropriate JDBC drivers for 7.0 version and SP16

    Hi all
    we are using XI 7.0 SP 16.
    what type/verion of JDBC drivers should be used for database connectivity?
    while i was going through "How to install external JDBC Drivers" it was suggesting to use
    Oracle 9i and Oracle 10g:
    ojdbc14.jar
    u2022 Microsoft SQL Server:
    msbase.jar, mssqlserver.jar, msutil.jar
    (in screen shots  as well it was showing he was using msbase.jar, mssqlserver.jar, msutil.jar and ojdbc14.jar)
    should we use both ojdbc14.jar and msbase.jar, mssqlserver.jar, msutil.jar or else one of them would be sufficient?
    Is OJDBC a type 4 and type 2 driver?
    Full Points are guaranteed
    Regards
    Bhasker

    Hi,
    You have to use ojdbc14.jar or classes12.zip/.jar for Oracle and msbase.jar, mssqlserver.jar, msutil.jar for Microsoft SQL Server. Thus both are required to be deployed on J2EE server.
    And Oracle JDBC is a type 4 driver.

  • How can I install JDBC drivers for Oracle?!?....

    i have a program that has this line:
    import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
    that gives this error when I compile it:
    package oracle.jdbc.pool does not exist
    So I think I need to install JDBC drivers for Oracle. (?)
    I went here: [http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/jdbc_111060.html]
    and downloaded the files for JDBC Thin.
    Then I followed this: [http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/111070_readme.html]
    by entering these commands (I'm using Ubuntu):
    export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/path/to/files/ojdbc6.jar
    export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/path/to/files/orai18n.jar
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/path/to/files
    When I type echo $CLASSPATH I can see that those commands worked, but it hasn't made any difference when I try to compile.
    I still get the same error. Is it because I didn't do anything about the .so files? The readme page didn't mention them in the installation section.
    Please help! I am so stuck...

    I don't think you need the shared libraries (.so files) and given what I saw when I glanced at those pages, I don't think they'd even work for you, although maybe I just didn't read enough of it.
    What happens when you type
    javap oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceon the command line?
    How are you invoking javac? Are you perhaps passing a classpath argument?
    Are you sure that the path to the jar files is correct? Are the paths relative?

    I highlighted in bold where the issue is, you went ahead and loaded the JDBC driver for Microsoft's SQL Server on the JAVA WebAS and not the JDBC driver for Oracle 9i, which is the RDBMS you are using. You can download the appropriate JDBC driver from the site below.
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/index.html
    Once you have done this install the Oracle JDBC Driver and you should be fine.
    Good Luck,
    Cheers,

  • JDBC drivers for SQL Server 2008 and PI7.0

    HI,
    I have deployed the JDBC drivers (sqljdbc.jar and sqljdbc4.jar) available for the SQL Server 2008 from the microsoft website as described in the how to document for deploying and configuring JDBC and JMS adapters.
    I am running a JDBC to FIle(XML) scenario. When I go and see on the RWB CC monitoring, I get this error

  • JDBC Drivers for Windows 2000

    I am new to JDBC and relatively new to Java. I am trying to set up my environment to connect to an Oracle database and am running Windows 2000 Professional. I need advice on what driver I need to install and where to get it. Have looked at Oracle but they only offer drivers for Win NT. Don't want to pay for it either!
    Thanks in advance

    Anything that runs under Win NT will run under Win 2000.
    Search the internet for free JDBC drivers - it might turn that you get what you pay for, however. If your site has an Oracle database then it probably has a support contract - check with your admin.
