Is ojdbc5.jar type of thin or oci jdbc driver?

Hi!
I have downloaded ojdbc5.jar(file of jdbc driver classes for oracle 11g) from OTN,but I don't know what kind of jdbc driver class it contains,THIN or OCI?
Thanks!
Huang

I went to the OTN download site. The download area of the page was titled "JDBC Thin for All Platforms". Of course, that doesn't mean much.
So I looked at [url-http://download.oracle.com/otn/utilities_drivers/jdbc/111060/Readme.txt]this ReadMe information, found one line above the at the same place as the download. That might be helpful, would it not?
And, of course, thgere is some added information in the FAQ at
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/jdbc_faq.html

  • Can't connect using OCI JDBC driver in OC4J 10.1.3.3 standalone

    Hi all,
    I've recently upgraded my JDev from 10.1.3.2 to 10.1.3.3 and now I'm unable to establish any OCI connections with my local Oracle 10.1.0.4 database. Not even through a connection pool. The strangest thing is that when I test an OCI connection running from JDeveloper it works fine and the JDBC jars and the oci client are exactly the same.
    The error is always the same when I execute a test on a connection pool using the OCI driver:
    WARNING J2EE DS-00001 Exception occurred testing connection. Exception: java.sql.SQLException: Closed Connection.
    If I just change the driver to the THIN one, the same test works. If I take the same URL from the OCI test and use it in a test class and run it inside JDeveloper, it works also.
    I've even downloaded the instant client 10.1.0.5 (which happens to be exactly the same version of the JDBC driver that comes with JDev 10.1.3.3) and tried to use it with no success.
    THIN connections are working just fine. The problem happens only when I try to connect via OCI and this problem was not happening in version 10.1.3.2.
    Any help?

    I found the cause of this problem. It turns out that you must be very careful with the environment variable ORACLE_HOME. On Windows, normally, we don't even set this variable because most applications are able to get it from the system's registry.
    Well, it happened that I've edited the script start_oc4j.bat and, for organization reasons, I set the ORACLE_HOME variable with my JDeveloper's home directory (which is the same as my OC4J standalone's). By doing that, I kind of confused the OCI client. Once I removed the "set ORACLE_HOME=C:\JDev" line from the script, everything worked just fine again.
    So, always remember: avoid setting environment variable ORACLE_HOME when using Windows and, if you must set it, be sure to do it right.
    Regards,
    Eduardo.

  • What are the benefits to using the OCI JDBC driver?

    I understand that the Thin JDBC driver is geared toward Applets since it is all Java and relatively small for download. If I am running servlets is there any compelling reason for me to use the OCI driver? I would think my application would be more portable if I stuck with the Thin driver even on the server side. This would allow me to easily move my servlet application to UNIX from NT, Java Web Server to IIS, IIS to Apache... So, does anyone know what one would gain by maintaining the Oracle Client software on the server and using the OCI driver?
    Thanks in advance.

    It's not a separate account. It's simply an additional address on your existing account and you can use it or not use it at your own convenience. Your @me.com address will be unaffected.

  • OCI JDBC Driver migration

    Hi,
    We are trying to make a migration from Thin driver to OCI in a Java-Oracle application. All the paths seems to be OK (OCI classes are in casses12.zip, aren4t they?) , we have an Oacle client in the machine and the program says:"java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:no ocijdbc8 in java.library.path"
    In any case, is it reasonable change from Thin to OCI
    to get better performance?
    Thanks.

  • Cant get OCI jdbc driver working on Mac OS X

    I have installed the 10g final release for Mac OS X 10.3.7.

  • Trying to use OCI Jdbc driver

    I'm using OC4J v2, with JDK1.3.1 under Linux
    what libs / configs are required to use OCI Jdbc Drivers ?
    thanks
    N.

    Debu, I spent much time searching this forum for answers to the ocijdbcX.dll problems in OC4J. I finally found my answer on Metalink. Apparently this is Bug# 1918517. The recommended fix on metalink for this bug solved my problem and is probably the problem that everyone else is experiencing. Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH and ORACLE_HOME had no affect on OC4J.

  • Configure Oracle OCI JDBC drivers

    What is the correct configuration of the connection pools in order to use
    Oracle's OCI JDBC driver:
    DB=8.1.7.3
    thanks,
    catharine

    There is a small machine specific library that's part of the JDBC OCI drivers. But it does you no good unless you have the OCI libraries themselves. And you must have exactly the same versions of the JDBC Java code, and that small machine specific library as you do OCI libraries for the driver to work. Those OCI C libraries are licensed products. If you want to use the JDBC OCI driver you should get the small machine specific library and Java code from the same source as the OCI libraries themselves. The JDBC OCI drivers are on the install CDs.
    I must admit, it's not clear to me what the benefit of having the OCI driver available for download is. If you can use it, then you have access to an Oracle install CD or a downloaded installer which will contain the JDBC OCI driver. I guess that if you already have an OCI install, it's easier to download the driver than it is to find the install CD.
    I'm not an expert on what is packaged where or how it's all licensed so I could be confused about some of this. I've asked Product Management to give me a clue. I could use one. I'll post another reply when I hear back.

  • When I get a date field value using the Oracle thin (type 4) JDBC driver...

    ....in 'DD-MMM-YY' format from an Oracle 8i database and pass it in to the java.util.Date() constructor, I get a IllegalArgumentException. This error doesn't occur when I use the type 2 driver, so it is apparently a driver-specific thing. It happens on both Win32 and Linux.
    Has anyone seen this before? Is there a newer version of the Oracle thin (i.e., type 4) driver than is listed here?

    Yup, that original post didn't make much sense, did it? Let's try again.
    I've got an EJB app that runs on WebLogic 6.0 (on Solaris in production, on Win2K for development) and accesses an Oracle 8i database. This app currently uses the Oracle type 2 JDBC drivers. All is well.
    So I wanted to see how it would run on Linux. I've got a Redhat 7.1 box handy, so I installed the JDK and WL6.0 and slapped the ear file on there. Problem! Can't deploy because there are no Oracle drivers on this machine!
    Makes sense. So I started looking around, and it seems installing Oracle on a RH 7.1 box involves patching glibc and other such nastiness. So let's just try the type 4 JDBC driver - no glibc patch, no shared object libraries, just good 'ol pure Java talking to Oracle on port 1521.
    Once I had the URLs and whatnot set up, the app connected to the DB just fine, created the connection pool, read some data, etc. But when my app read a date from the DB and instantiates a new java.util.Date object, I got an IllegalArgumentException - i.e., the date can't be parsed.
    "Hmm... that's odd", I thought, so back I went to my trusty Win2K machine, modified my configuration files to use the type 4 driver and - same error! So I switched back to the type 2 driver - and everything works fine, Dates and all. Hmmm.....
    As you correctly state, that Date constructor is deprecated and I should use DateFormats and GregorianCalendars and whatnot instead.
    But has anyone seen this weird behavior before - code that works fine on a type 2 driver starts throwing exceptions when used with a type 4 driver? Anyone have any solutions?
    Thanks much,
    Tom

  • JDBC OCI和JDBC Thin有什么区别?

    JDBC OCI和JDBC Thin有什么区别？
    效果有什么区别？（都是通过weblogic连db的）

    一般来说
    OCI效率应该高一些
    不过使用的时候一般使用jdbc直接连接
    因为OCI不是纯java实现

    2) Is it ok to stay on ojdbc4.jar if we're not using the latest JDBC apis?
    3) If it's ok to upgrade, how do I override the ojdbc4.jar since it's referenced in the weblogic.jar manifest without having to edit the file/jar? Change config.xml to something like:
    <class-path>some_path/ojdbc5.jar;some_path/orai18n.jar</class-path>
    4) Also, I've been told to include orai18n.jar, does adding it to the class-path in config.xml include this jar? How do I verify the jar is actually being used?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jim

    Joe -
    We are facing the following issues: -
    Our setup consists of 1 weblogic home with multiple domains, where each application within the domain uses datasource to connect to different databases. JDBC driver for this datasource is being provided by weblogic's server/lib/ojdbc14.jar file.
    One of the application within a domain need to upgraded to ojdbc5 driver, and that is where we are facing issue. We added ojdbc5.jar and orai18n.jar to our application specific domain/lib directory and update the domain/setDomainEnv.sh with PRE_CLASSPATH entry pointing to the updated jdbc jar locations within domain. I have not deleted / renamed the ojdbc14.jar file under weblogic server/lib directory, since this driver is used by other applications in different domains. When the server starts I do find that the first classpath entry is for ojdbc5.jar and orai18n.jar it is followed by ojdb14.jar entry. I thought that ojdbc5 classes would take precedence, but it doesn't look like its happening and the system is using ojdbc14 classes.
    So is there a way, by which I can, for our domain, not use ojdbc14 jar file without deleting / renaming it from server /lib directory, with the file setup mentioned above?
