JDBC access to Oracle DB - nls_charset-12.jar

All,
I found this jar used by an application along with the oracle 9.x JDBC driver. Obviously an upgrade is required to the latest JDBC drivers. Does anyone know what nls_charset-12.jar is used for and if the new 11g version still requires it? I would assume there is only 1 jar file which would take care of JDBC communication with Oracle DB.
Thanks in advance!

>
Yes, I will have to support international characters as well. So this jar file is still required with Oracle 11g?
>
That file has been replaced with orai18n.jar which is clearly stated on the download page:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/jdbc-112010-090769.html
The driver's readme also clearly explains for which character sets you need the ora18n.jar:
http://download.oracle.com/auth/otn/utilities_drivers/jdbc/112/Readme.txt?e=1302938175&h=f74ccdcb22412e9b88109cc11fc17b32

The JDBC Server-side Internal Driver provides complete NLS support.
It does not require any NLS extension jar file. Discussions in this
section only apply to the Oracle JDBC Thin and JDBC OCI drivers.
The basic jar files (ojdbc5.jar and ojdbc6.jar) contain all the
necessary classes to provide complete NLS support for:
- Oracle Character sets for CHAR/VARCHAR/LONGVARCHAR/CLOB type data
that is not retrieved or inserted as a data member of an Oracle
Object or Collection type.
- NLS support for CHAR/VARCHAR data members of Objects and
Collections for a few commonly used character sets. These
character sets are: US7ASCII, WE8DEC, WE8ISO8859P1, WE8MSWIN1252,
and UTF8.

JDBC access to Oracle Lite from midlet on j9 pocket pc

Hi all,
Is it possible to access an Oracle Lite database from a MIDLet applicatie
running on a POCKET with the J9 virtual machine? I want to use MIDP and not the Personal Profile to be able to use the Oracle webservice proxy with the J2ME client SDK.
I think that I only have to include the appropriate libraries (classes12.jar or olite40.jar) in my project..Am I right?
Thanks in advance,
Tom Hofte

Hi,
Please do not get me wrong , I am sending this reply to get some help from you about your findings .
I am s/w developer who is involved in application development for PDA devices
As an option ,
I have installed oracle9i database in a machine which has win2k server OS and then
Installed oracle9iLite mobile server sharing the same <ORACLE_HOME> on the machine.
I am trying to configure and start the mobile server in the “STANDALONE MODE”
When I typed webtogo on the cmd line , it did not respond , instead it said “Unrecognized option”
Then when I tried to execute the weg-to-go executable file in the <ORACLE_HOME>\mobile\server\bin directory ,
It did not respond .
Can you please help me out to sort out this problem,
And also give me some more useful hints to configure the mobile server as a module in oracle9iAS.
Expecting an early response
Thanks in advance

Problem with JDBC driver for Oracle 10g

Hi.
I've successfully accessed a MySQL database via a DataSource from a servlet (that uses a DAO). However, when I try to do the same with an Oracle 10g Database, I get the error message:
Cannot load JDBC driver class 'oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver'
I'm using J2SE1.5.0/5.0 and ojdbc14.jar, the latter of which I downloaded this afternoon as the latest driver JAR available on the Oracle site. As with the MySQL driver, I've placed it in the commons\lib folder within Tomcat. (I've also, of course, made the necessary modifications to server.xml and web.xml.)
Upon examining the ReadMe file at the top of the Oracle download page, I found that the oracle.jdbc.driver package is now deprecated and all references to oracle.jdbc.driver should be replaced with oracle.jdbc. However, I got a similar error message when I tried this modification. Upon examining the contents of ojdbc.jar, I found that the driver was there and that it was, in fact, still oracle\jdbc\driver\OracleDriver!
It appears as though the Oracle site has not been updated with a driver that matches its latest documentation. However, this does not explain why the driver is not even being loacted when it is in the correct place. Can anybody shed any light on this? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in anticipation.
Cheers.

I've successfully accessed a MySQL database via a
DataSource from a servlet (that uses a DAO). However,
when I try to do the same with an Oracle 10g
Database, I get the error message:
Cannot load JDBC driver class 'oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver'
That's different from a ClassNotFoundException.
>
I'm using J2SE1.5.0/5.0 and ojdbc14.jar, the latter
of which I downloaded this afternoon as the latest
driver JAR available on the Oracle site. So you got ojdbc14.jar or ojdbc14_g.jar under the 10g drivers?
As with the
MySQL driver, I've placed it in the commons\lib
folder within Tomcat. I think it's a better idea to put in the WEB-INF/lib directory of your Web app rather than commons/lib. WAR files are a very good idea, too.
(I've also, of course, made the
necessary modifications to server.xml and web.xml.)So you're using a JNDI data source? It sounds to me like that's where the problem is.
You should not have to edit the server.xml at all. If you put the <ResourceParams> in a context XML file with the same name as your WAR file into the TOMCAT_HOME/webapps directory it'll be picked up automatically. (It might also be accessible in the META-INF directory for your app, but I haven't done it that way.)
Upon examining the ReadMe file at the top of the
Oracle download page, I found that the
oracle.jdbc.driver package is now deprecated and all
references to oracle.jdbc.driver should be replaced
with oracle.jdbc.
However, I got a similar error
message when I tried this modification. Upon
examining the contents of ojdbc.jar, I found that the
driver was there and that it was, in fact, still
oracle\jdbc\driver\OracleDriver! The fully-resolved class name you should be using MUST match the class that's in the ojdbc14.jar that you're using. Look in the JAR for the definitive answer: the one that I downloaded is still using the oracle.jdbc.driver package for OracleDriver.class. Ignore the docs - use the name that's in the JAR.
It appears as though the Oracle site has not been
updated with a driver that matches its latest
documentation. That often happens with docs.
However, this does not explain why the
driver is not even being loacted when it is in the
correct place. Can anybody shed any light on this?
Any help would be much appreciated.I think the problem lies in your web.xml and server.xml
I'd recommend that you decouple the JDBC from the Web app for now. See if you can connect to Oracle using a simple desktop app and leave the Web piece out of the equation for now. Once you can do that, you'll be certain that the parameters you're using are correct and you can turn your attention to getting the Tomcat configuration right.
PS - I'm using Oracle 9.2.0.1 and Tomcat successfully right now, so it can be done.

Choosing jdbc driver for Oracle 9.0.1 with sdk 1.4.1?

Hi all experts...
I am really beating my head over this... I had java sdk 1.3.1 installed and i am writing an application for oracle database 9.0.1 The driver i had was a classes12.zip file that i included in the classpath to run the application.
Now, i have upgraded my java to 1.4.1 but my application is not picking up the zip file anymore! I am getting No suitable driver:08001 error and NoClassDefFoundError. I checked the oracle website, they dont have a 9.0.1 driver for sdk 1.4.
Is my current driver compatible?
Do i have to upgrade my oracle DB to 9.2 and use another driver?
Or is just one of those classpath problems?
Part of my code is given below:
private static Statement createStatement(String driver, String url, String user, String password)throws IllegalArgumentException, SQLException, ClassNotFoundException
if (url == null || driver == null)
     throw new IllegalArgumentException("No database specified");
try
Class.forName(driver);
catch(ClassNotFoundException e)
System.out.println("Class not found: "+driver);
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, user, password);
return conn.createStatement();
CLASSPATH=C:\projects\MauiWSxml\resources\classes12.zip;
I will be grateful to any help ...Pleeeeessseeee
Thanks in advance

Great progress! Excellent!
I'd recommend that you get rid of that CLASSPATH system variable immediately. Don't use it anymore.

}Put this code in a directory with your classes12.zip. Type:
javac -d . -classpath classes12.zip DataConnection.javaYou should get a DataConnection.class file in that directory. Then type:
java -classpath classes12.zip DataConnection <sql> oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver jdbc:oracle:thin:@<host>:1521:<database> <username> <password>where <sql> is any SQL statement that will work against your Oracle instance, <host> is the database server, <database> is the Oracle instance, <username> and <password> give you access to Oracle. (DON'T type the chevons <> - I just included them for illustration.)
If that won't connect, change the name of classes12.zip to classes12.jar and try again.
This WILL work. - MOD

Not able to access the Oracle I/PM web client.

I have started the Administration server and the Oracle I/PM Managed Server. Now I'm trying to access the Oracle I/PM web client at this URL: http://hostname:16000/imaging. But when I hit this URL, the following error comes up:
Error 404--Not Found
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
10.4.5 404 Not Found
The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent.
If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address.
I'm also posting a part of the logs from the IPM_server log file:

JDBC Problem with Oracle 8.1.7. and OC4J Version 2

I use the following connection statement with Oracle 8.1.7. and JDeveloper 3 and Apache Server. It works fine.
String user = "scott/tiger";
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:oci8:"+user+"@RDL");
The same program does not obtain the connection with JDeveloper 9i, OC4J Version 2 and Oracle 8.1.7. I do not receive any error message, no exception is thrown.
Please help me.

Hi Avi,
I had already tried the thin Diriver but after yout help I try again.
With this thin driver, I received a SQLException which helps me.
As usual, there were a lot of different problems. The main one was that my default configuration do not use the jdbc/lib817 main jdbc/lib. There is a classe12.jar in these libs that are apparently different.
Finally, I obtain the connection with the "thin" driver.
Thank you very much Avi!

HELP! Jdbc connection to oracle ClassNotFoundException classpath issues..

Okay I am a newbie to this but all the other posts concerning this just say add the classes12.jar to my classpath.
I am using websphere 5.0

after trying to find out what my classpath is ( websphere 5.0 makes it difficult to see it) i found this:

Please help. ive been working on it for days =(.

If you're running a Web app, put all JARs that your app needs in the WEB-INF/lib directory. That's always in the CLASSPATH.
I don't know WebSphere. Do you really have to edit something to add all those CLASSPATH entries?
In Tomcat, all I'd have to do is put a WAR file in the webapps directory.
Your code needs some work. You're not following Sun's Java coding standards. Capitalize your class name, for starters.
Is the username and password for your database still "scott" and "tiger"? Nice security there.
Your connect method makes a database connection. Do you leave it to users to close it? (You do close your connections when you're done with them, don't you?)
I'd make Connection a data member and create it in a constructor. I'd write a close method to close it up.
Doesn't WebSphere do connection pooling? Do you really want to write your own class to handle this?

Error transaction no longer active, no further JDBC access allowed

Hello
Our application uses WLS 6.0 SP2, TopLink 3.5.3, WebLogic JMS. A
(pooled) JMS driven message bean invokes other application components
(stateless session beans). Also, application components use JMS to send
messages. JMS and application (through TopLink) use the same JDBC
connection pool. TopLink connects through javax.sql.DataSource and
external transaction controller. 2PC transactions are required to
integrate JMS and TopLink DB access (see data source definition below).
All components run in a single JVM, there is not distributed transaction
between JVMs.
When pushing > 5 concurrent messages into the system I get an error that
somehow indicates TopLink access to a connection that is no longer
associated with a WebLogic transaction.
I can consistently reproduce this error with the Oracle thin, Oracle OCI
and WebLogic OCI JDBC drivers. It seems to occur independent from the
maximum number of connections in the pool (tested between 1 and 30).
Also, when serializing the message supply with a pause in between the
error does not seem to occur.
Has anybody seen this type of problem before?
Are there possibly known issues with the external transaction controller
integration?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Thomas

Better to ask on a hibernate forum, but you seem to
be trying to reuse a closed transaction. If you have
auto-commit set to ttrue, try changing it to false,
the explicitly calling commit when you are done.Might be worth finding out why something is trying to use a closed transaction first, before changing your entire transaction management idiom, though

Problem creating JDBC dataview to oracle on Windows

Hi,
I'm trying to configure a JDBC dataview to an Oracle 10g database on DSEE 6.3.1 running Windows 2008
Here are the command I used:
dpconf create-jdbc-data-source -b MYDBSID -B jdbc:oracle:thin://dbhost:1510: \
     -J file://e:\dsee\ojdbc14.jar \
     -S oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver mydb
echo "password" > e:\dsee\instances\mydb.pwd
dpconf set-jdbc-data-source-prop mydb db-user:myuser \
     db-pwd-file:e:\dsee\instances\mydb.pwd \
     is-enabled:true is-read-only:true \
dpconf create-jdbc-data-source-pool mypool
dpconf attach-jdbc-data-source mypool mydbAnd when trying to create the view with this command:
dpconf create-jdbc-data-view myview mypool o=example.comHere is what I get:
[LDAP: error code 1 - Unable to apply configuration changes: Exception catched while initializing
JDBC driver oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver in configuration entry cn=mydb,cn=data sources,cn=config --
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver. Check that [Ljava.lang.String;@100
bac2 is a valid URL to a jar file containing class oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver]".
{code}
I guess that it doesn't find the jdbc driver for Oracle but the file is there in e:\dsee\ojdbc14.jar
I tried to copy it to e:\dsee\dps6\lib but it doesn't work better.
Any idea ?
Frederic.

I found the solution by adapting the path to the jdbc jar file:
dpconf set-jdbc-data-source-prop ehldb driver-url:file:///e:/dsee/ojdbc14.jarAdding a third slash after file: and using backslashes instead of slashes solved my problem.

This problem hasn't been solved yet, and now I found something harder to solve with this Oracle database and it's JDBC when I was using a synchronous scenario.

Between the 2007-02-28 10:03:53 and 2007-02-28 10:10:59, what takes it so long to process? Also it happens randomly.
Since it is synchronous, the remote database table has been updated but the connection with XI has been disconnected for timeout issue, which lead to unrecoverable data inconsistent problem.
Anyone who can help me?

Remote JDBC Problem with Oracle BPM Studio

Hi all, i am facing the Remote JDBC Problem with Oracle BPM Studio.
When i configure a Remote JDBC Connection for SQL in BPM Studio, it prompt me an error.

I guess the weblogic.jar is not included in the studio.
So, i added weblogic.jar (Weblogic 10.3) and wlclient.jar (Weblogic 10.3)
It is working in my simple java code. But, still not working in BPM Studio.

Can Forms Builder access non-Oracle Database?

Does any one know whether Pracle Forms can access othe non-Oracle database via ODBC or JDBC to MS Access or MySQL?

12282,
In general, HTML DB gives you access to Oracle database facilities. These include heterogeneous services. Please search this forum for keyword "heterogeneous" and you can follow the threads that interest you.
As for the comparison with brain surgery, I'd rank them about the same in terms of raw thrill.

PDK 9.0.4 Error: cannot access class oracle.security.jazn.realm.RealmUser

Dear Forum,
we are developing portlets for Portal 3.0.9.8. We use the default JPDK version, that comes with the standalone Oracle OC4J 9.0.4 bundled with PDK.
We want to improve our portlet by check the userid of the portal user. Therefore, we want to use oracle.portal.provider.v2.ProviderUser.getUser().getName()
in a JSP.
First - even before the method call - we included
<%@ page import="oracle.portal.provider.v2.http.ServletProviderUser" %>
But even this 1 statement gives in JDeveloper 9.0.4 with the libs pdkjava and ptlshare from the OC4J the following error:
Error: cannot access class oracle.security.jazn.realm.RealmUser; file oracle\security\jazn\realm\RealmUser.class not found
What is wrong here? What missing library we must include?
Thank You in advance

Problem solved. Need to include jazn.jar in project's lib-paths.

Error Accessing an Oracle Function

Hi There,
I am trying to access an oracle function and getting an
error.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION simple RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
BEGIN
RETURN 'Simple Function';
END simple;
<cfstoredproc procedure="simple" datasource="MySource"
returnCode ="no">
<CFPROCRESULT name="simple_function">
</cfstoredproc>
Error:
Error Executing Database Query. [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC
Driver][ODBC Socket][Oracle][ODBC]Syntax error or access violation.
I do have access to this function. I tried it from SQL Plus
and it works fine.
any help in this will be highly appreciated.
Regards,

As per Adam Cameron advice, I changed my SQL function:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION simple RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
a varchar2(10) := '';
BEGIN
select 'Simple' into a from dual;
Return a;
END simple;
As per paross1 advice, I changed my code to:
<cfstoredproc procedure="simple" datasource="MySource"
returnCode ="yes">
<CFPROCRESULT name="simple_function">
</cfstoredproc>
I am still getting the following error:
Error Executing Database Query. [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC
Driver][ODBC Socket][Oracle][ODBC]Syntax error or access violation.
The error occurred on line 53.
Any advice will be highly appreciated.
