JDBC CONNECTION TO ORACLE9i DB USING JDBC THIN DRIVER 9.2.0

Hi everyone,
I have have set my classpath:
set classpath=.;c:/oracle/ora92/jdbc/lib/ojdbc14.jar;c:/oracle/ora92/jdbc/lib/nls_charset11.zip;c:/oracle/ora92/jdbc/lib/nls_charset12.zip
i have also specified the jdbc url:
String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@//chuksnb/javanb;
where chuksnb is the oracle server host and javanb is my oracle service name
somewhere in the code i have specified the driver class:
class.forName("ojdbc14.jar")
please what are the things that i have not done correctly because when i compile my program, i get 31 errors.
thanks

"I have have set my classpath:
set classpath=.;c:/oracle/ora92/jdbc/lib/ojdbc14.jar;c:/oracle/ora92/jdbc/lib/nls_charset11.zip;c:/oracle/ora92/jdbc/lib/nls_charset12.zip"
This is probably wrong or not going to help you one bit. This isn't the best way to deal with CLASSPATH.
I don't have an environment variable named CLASSPATH on any machine that I work on. It's not the way to do things, IMO.

  • Problem in connecting to database using oracle jdbc thin driver

    hi
    i am trying to connect to a database using oracle thin driver.
    i am getting following error:
    java.sql.sqlexception:Io exception: the network adapter could not establish the connection
    Io exception: the network adapter could not establish the connection
    the connection string has the property of using a dedicated server
    for this reason i have put USE_DEDICATED_SERVER=ON in sqlnet.ora file...
    we did not face this problem while connecting to other databases which do not have the property of dedicated server in their connection string in tnsnames.ora file.
    please suggest a solution for this.
    thanks and regards,
    asif

    If you are using the thin driver, sqlnet.ora does not come into play. None of Oracle networking does. That is one of the great things about using the thin driver, no need to have the client installed.
    That error is due to incorrect connection info you are supplying or the machine you are connection from can't ping the machine it is trying to connect to.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

    If you're using 8i 8.1.7.1 or 8i 8.1.7.0 thin JDBC drivers on NT, then you can get them to connect to 9i by applying the 8i 8.1.7.1 Patch available at:
    http://technet.oracle.com/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/solsoft.html
    You might have to register/login first.
    Basically, it's just a case of replacing a class already in your classes111.zip or classes12.zip with the class in the patch.
    Took me a while to find this, but it worked first time after patching. Hope this helps.

    1. What JDBC Thin client Driver are you using? (version) If you don't know, open up the Manifest.
    2. the JDBC/OCI driver is a thick driver. It uses the oracle client, and therefore should read the tnsnames.ora
    3. You have yet to give us any ORA- errors, which would help immensely in troubleshooting.

    The code itself is fine; the problem is with one of:
    1) the connection URL
    2) intermediate networking
    3) the database itself
    1) your connection URL is "jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:orcl"
    - is Oracle really running on the default port, 1521
    - is the installation SID really "orcl"
    2) lots of possibilities, but only a couple are likely
    - is TCP/IP configured and running on your host
    - is there a persoanl firewall rpduct running? perhaps it's blocking the connection
    3) Is Oracle running?
    Is the listener running?

  • Sql_trace does not work for Java app using Oracle JDBC thin driver

    Hi,
    I'm using Oracle 8.1.7. I enabled sql trace at instance level by setting sql_trace and timed_statistics to true in init.ora. I restarted the db instance. I wrote a stand-alone java application which used Oracle JDBC thin driver(classes12.zip) to make a connection to my db instance, do some select statements, and close the connection. There were no trace files generated in the folder specified by udump_dest variable. However, if I used sqlplus or dba studio, I saw trace files generated. Has anyone got Oracle sql trace work for JDBC calls from java apps.
    Thanks in advance!

  • Using Oracle JDBC Thin Driver

    We are trying to use the Oracle supplied JDBC thin driver directly from within a jar file we add for our application.
    The classes in the jar file directly connect to an oracle database via the thin driver.
    The problem we've encountered is that if the JDBC Connection object is held in memory, after some time, the connection times out for no reason.
    Is there some restriction with weblogic in connecting directly to database from a class file and then caching the connection reference? It almost seems as if weblogic is severing the connections.
    thank you,
    BJ

    Stefan,
    You are right, although I would recommend just having the
    TestConnectionOnReserve= true and the testTableName set. Refresh Minutes
    becomes kind of redundent when you set these values.
    TestConnsOnReserve allows the server to verify if a connection that the
    client/application has requested is good , otherwise it recreates this
    connection and gives it to the client/application.

    Hi Sree,
    If instead a WL connection pool would be used this issue could be solved
    using
    "Refresh Period" and TestTableName right? In this case the connection would
    be
    alive as long as WL server is up. As a bonus we would have an automatic
    reconnection
    after an Oracle server reboot?

    Hi BJ,
    When you get connection directly using the Oracle thin driver, this is
    for
    sure your database timing out the connection when no activity is detected
    for sometime. You should consult with your DBA to ensure this timeout
    is set
    to a higher value at the server or ensure you dont hold on to theconnection
    for long durations or ensure you handle this situation by triggering
    a
    generic oracle process so that you periodically keep the connection busy
    to
    ensure that the database does not close it.
    This shouldnt be anything to do with WebLogic as you dont seem to be
    using
    WebLogic connection pool.

  • Change expired password using oracle jdbc thin driver

    Hello,
    I have a java program that uses the oracle jdbc thin driver (ojdbc6 - version 11.2.0.3) for database connection. My question is if I have any possibility to change an expired password (java.sql.SQLException: ORA-28001: the password has expired) using the thin driver - NOT OCI?

    No - the thin driver doesn't have any password management features.

  • OS Authentication using JDBC Thin driver

    Hi
    I have a problem while connecting to Oracle database using JDBC Thin Driver, Basically I am trying to connect using OS Authentication. The following explains clearly what I am trying to do.
    String connectionURL = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XYZ";
    String userName = "/";
    String password = "";
    java.util.Properties info = new java.util.Properties();
    info.setProperty("user",userName);
    info.setProperty("password",password);
    conn = DriverManager.getConnection(connectionURL,info);
    When executing the code I am getting an exception as follows.
    java.sql.SQLException: Null user or password not supported in THIN driver
    When i searched in the Oracle site i got the below information
    Note:
    By default, the JDBC driver retrieves the OS username from the user.name system property, which is set by the JVM. If the JDBC driver is unable to retrieve this system property or if you want to override the value of this system property, then you can use the OracleConnection.CONNECTION_PROPERTY_THIN_VSESSION_OSUSER connection property. For more information, see Oracle Javadoc.
    I want to know how to set the OracleConnection.CONNECTION_PROPERTY_THIN_VSESSION_OSUSER connection property.
    Advance Thanks

    Based on your code, when you try to connect your username is null and the password is "/". You are not going to be able to get the OS password using Java.

  • Problem using JDBC Thin driver with Oracle 8i Personal Edition

    Hi all, I have an issue I have been unable to figure out. In order to make my code as portable as possible I am using the JDBC thin driver to access my database. I have been able to connect to an instance of Oracle 8i on a Sun box by hardcoding the following string into getConnection() call:
    conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(COMMUNITY=tcp.world)(PROTOCOL=TCP)(Host=<myhostname>)(Port=1521))(ADDRESS=(COMMUNITY=tcp.w orld)(PROTOCOL=TCP)(Host = <myhostname>)(Port = 1526)))(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = <mysidname>)))", <myuser>, <mypassword>);
    My problem is that I cannot figure out what string to use to connect to my local instance of Oracle 8i Personal. I used the following string (the sid I got from the looking at the init.ora file):
    conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(COMMUNITY=tcp.world)(PROTOCOL=TCP)(Host=localhost)(Port=1521))(ADDRESS=(COMMUNITY=tcp.world)(PRO TOCOL=TCP)(Host = localhost)(Port = 1526)))(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = orcl)))", "scott", "tiger");
    That didn't work, so I took the only entry found in my tnsnames.ora file in as:
    conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC0)))(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = PLSExtProc)(PRESENTATION = RO)))", "scott", "tiger");
    I am not knowing what is wrong, but that didn't work neither. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks....

    try this:
    conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:scott/tiger:@hostname:1521:sid");

I changed the driver type from "thin" to "oci" (and installed Oracle Instant client for my test machine) and the connection works just fine using the same tnsnames file, the same wallet, and the same cipher suite. From the Java perspective the only thing that changed was four characters -> "thin" became "oci". I am still using password based authentication as I understand that the authentication part of SSL is not supported in the thin driver on 10.2
    Can anyone verify that the SSL encryption works with JDBC thin as advertised? (not the Oracle Net encryption, but rather the one described in Chapter 11 of the JDBC Developer's Guide. See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/java.102/b14355/sslthin.htm#CHDFEICG
    I really would prefer to avoid using the OCI driver because of its dependencies on the native platform. Is there something special with how the users are created or how the JDBC API should be used? I am setting what I think to be appropriate parameters (oracle.net.wallet_location, oracle.net.cipher_suites) all to no avail. Does anyone have a working example they can provide?

    1) I would suggest posting this question over in the JDBC forum. The folks over there are far more likely to be able to help you.
    2) When you do post this question over there, I would strongly suggest posting some sample code/ configuration scripts so that folks can reproduce your problem on their local machines. That tends to make it far easier to debug the problem and/or to notice if you've missed a step.
