JDBC Thin Driver for Tomcat 6

I just upgraded to Tomcat 6. For older version of Tomcat I was using ojdbc14.jar and for Tomcat 6 I am still using ojdbc14.jar.
Everything is working but wanted to know if there is a newer version of the Oracle Thin Driver for JDBC?

There is one version per release of the database (with sometimes minor releases for bugfixes released later. which will have the same filename but different internal version numbers).
Only exception I know of is Oracle 11 which ships with both 1.5 and 1.6 compiled drivers.

Oracle 8 JDBC thin driver for tomcat

Hi all,
I have tomcat3.3 installed on HP UNIX with java version "HP-UX Java C.01.18.05"
I need to connect to an oracle 8 database using a Oracle JDBC thin driver. Where can I obtain this driver? How to install and configure it for the tomcat application?
Thanks for your help.
Regards
Shriram

If you go to the link which the last person posted, http://technet.oracle.com/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/content.html, there is no indication for HP-UX. The only OS it lists are NT and Solaris. Does anyone know if these versions will work on HP-UX?
Please help.

Oracle JDBC Thin Driver for oracle 9.2.0.4

Hi,
It would be nice if someone please guide me to the download of Oracle JDBC Thin Driver for oracle 9.2.0.4.
Thanks in anticipation

user566773,
As far as I know, all Oracle JDBC drivers are meant to be backward compatible.
According to the table on the following Web page, the latest Oracle JDBC driver can be used with Oracle 9.2.0.x DBMS.

re-read my earlier reply -- the comment was :
Thedatabase you're using went out of support over 2 years
ago. oracle doesn't provide jdbc drivers for anything less
than the minimum supported version ---> 7.3.4.At no time did i refer to the client s/w being required !!
also it was not tested against unsupported version of the
rdbms ...
also rdbms 7.1.3 isn't y2k compliant.
use it at your own risk..
what "claim" are you saying oracle made ??

Steps to load Oracle JDBC Thin driver onto Tomcat

I have Oracle JDBC working with thin driver on my local Tomcat container and now need to put it on a server but forgot how I set it up and want to make sure I do it correctly when I put it on the server.
Please advise if this is correct?
1- Load the thin driver (ojdbc14.jar ) in Tomcat 4.1.27 Container into the common/lib directory
2- Set the classpath on the Windows server to allow me to use the ojdbc14.jar driver?
If so then I need to do this using Windows DOS where I add the thin driver to my Classpath?
Set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;C:\TomcatHome\common\lib\servlet-api.jar;C:\TomcatHome\common\lib\ojdbc14.jar
Or do I NOT need to set the classpath and just restart the Tomcat container??

Thanks,
I loaded the ojdbc14.jar file in common/lib and restarted the container and I can now connect to Oracle.
What you mean by not needing ojdbc14 for compilation and it would be better to use a build tool[b] to do what?

JDBC thin drivers for oracle 8.0.5 for linux

I want to use Java SDK 1.2.2 and need the oracle thin drivers.
I have trouble with the 816 thin drivers connecting to the 8.0.5
server.
when using statement.executeQuery(..... I get the following
Exception.
Exception error: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-03120: two-task
conversion routine:integer overflow
I think my solution is to upgrade to a 8.1.6 server or use the
java 1.1.6 driver on the JDK1.1.6
I tried downoading the 8.1.5 enterprise server but this fails to
complete.
Can someone help me to this version on CDROM or to the JDBC thin
driver for the 8.0.5 server?
null

You must include "classes12.zip" instead of "classes111.zip".
Since "classes111.zip" is required only for Java 1
and "classes12.zip" is required for Java 2 which means from J2SE 1.2 on forward.
In adition you might need to inlcude "nls_charset12.zip" as well. Try it first without and if it is not working include it as well.
The required files can you get from the OTN.
This should help

Jdbc oracle jdbc-thin driver subname

I am working on Windows 2000 environment, using oracle8i 8.1.7 JDBC-Thin driver for use with JDK 1.2.x. The oralce8i 8.1.7 database is on another linux box. I can access the linux box through its ip address, but not by its hostname since it's not accessiable by the dns server. In my code, in the JDBCUrl, I used ip address instead of the hostname, e.g. "jdbc:oracle:thin:@10.0.113.108:1521:ora1". But I got the error like: "java.sql.SQLException: Io exception: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection". If I add a entry in my working machine's hosts file to map the hostname, I can fix the problem. But I don't know if this is the solution, or there is other better solutions.
Thanks

Using a hosts file entry is a common solution for problem where the dns lookup does not contain an entry for a RDBMS server platform.
The real solution is to resolve this issue :
"where the dns lookup does not contain an entry for a RDBMS server platform."

Oracle JDBC Thin Driver and Firewall Problem

Hi!
We have Oracle 8.1.5 and Websphere App Server. There is a
firewall between the two. A servlet creates a connection pool
(not that of Wesphere's). The frontend is JSP/HTML (no applets).
The servlet uses the Oracle JDBC Thin Driver for DB Connections.
The problem is - Once the connection is freed, the connection
pool is not being able to retrieve it and hence it created
another one, thus reaching the max. # of connections and the
system hangs. Restarting the DB service flushes the connection
and the application starts running again...
There was a similar problem discussed in this forums long ago. I
have not yet tried mentioning the firwall port and IP in the
connection string. But apart from that, is there any other
setting I need to do (on firewall or for the connectionstring)
to deal with this problem?
Someone had suggested to punch a hole in the firewall for the DB
port - but we can not really do that in the current scenario...
I would appreciate if anyone could share their experience
regarding how they resolved this issue.
Thanks in advance,
Vijaya.

One more question -
Can we use Oracle JDBC OCI driver? We do not have any appletes...
Does it have firewall issues too? Is there any other driver that
we can use?
Thanks,
Vijaya.

Error Code Definition for JDBC Thin driver

Would like to know where I can find the definition of error codes
for JDBC thin driver to Oracle 7 database. Right now, when I have
database errors, I get SQL execption with CODE=XXXXXX. Need to
know the definition of the error codes in order to decide whether
the application shall retry or quit or do something else. Thank
you in advance.

Hi,
thin client session Language is controlled by java Locale.
Based on testing code, ORA- messages are localized after the connection is successfully established. ORA- messages returned in the middle of connecting are in instance language.
So, as far as I can say, you need to catch exceptions from DriverManager.getConnection(url, info); and translate them on your own.
Once the connection is successfully returned, ORA- message language is defined by java Locale.
Tests were performed on Oracle 10gR2 (both thin driver and DB).

JDBC thin Driver 8.0.X Limit 2k for varchar2?

I am using Oracle JDBC thin driver 8.0.5.0.0 to query Oracle
8.0.5 via SQL net. The problem I met is every time I try to
retrieve data for varchar2 (over 2k), it get truncated and only
return the first 2k without throwing any warning or exception.
I tried getString(), getAsciiStream() and getBinaryStream(), and
the results are still the same. The SQL Net works fine, since it
successfully returns over 2k varchar2 type data when programing
with PERL.

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!

JDBC Thin Driver Support for Data Encryption and Integrity

Hello JDev Team,
I am trying to implement JDBC Thin Driver Support for Data Encryption and Integrity.
It works fine with java.sql.Connection and java.util.Properties like in the following code:
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
Properties props = new Properties();
int level = AnoServices.REQUIRED;
props.put("oracle.net.encryption_client", Service.getLevelString(level));
props.put("oracle.net.encryption_types_client", "( RC4_40 )");
props.put("oracle.net.crypto_checksum_client",Service.getLevelString(level));
props.put("oracle.net.crypto_checksum_types_client", "( MD5 )");
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:main", props);
etc...
But I am developing an application with InfoSwing components and it has a different way to connect to Oracle database using oracle.dacf.dataset.connections.Connection, like this:
sessionInfo1.setAppModuleInfo(new ModuleInfo("bc", "BcModule"));
sessionInfo1.setConnectionInfo(new LocalConnection("JDBCThin"));
sessionInfo1.publishSession();
My question is:
Is there any way to implement DataEncryption and Integrity into this type of connection?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Victor,
No, you can't do this from DAC, but I've been discussing it with the developer, and we both think this capability would be useful to have, so I've logged it as an enhancement request.
I do have a question for you. Once you've made the JDBC connection, do you need access to the Connection object afterwards? We're thinking of how the change could be implemented, and one way would be to allow you to pass in a Properties object when creating your own NamedConnection.
Thanks
Blaise

Is jdbc thin driver not designed for internet use?

Is jdbc thin driver not designed for internet use?
The size of the thin-driver file is about 1MB of size and is
too large if were to ask clients to download it from the
internet.
Can anyone advise on this issue?
null

You need to remote onto the server and go into start->control panel-Administration-> ODBC (or sometimes start->administration->ODBC) and set up ODBC connections . Make sure you set them up on the system tab, then you should see them in EAS. I don't remember, b ut don't think you need to restart the Essbase servise for them to take effect

Bug in Oracle JDBC thin driver (parameter order)

[ I'd preferably send this to some Oracle support email but I
can't find any on both www.oracle.com and www.technet.com. ]
The following program illustrates bug I found in JDBC Oracle thin
driver.
* Synopsis:
The parameters of prepared statement (I tested SELECT's and
UPDATE's) are bound in the reverse order.
If one do:
PreparedStatement p = connection.prepareStatement(
"SELECT field FROM table WHERE first = ? and second = ?");
and then bind parameter 1 to "a" and parameter to "b":
p.setString(1, "a");
p.setString(2, "b");
then executing p yields the same results as executing
SELECT field FROM table WHERE first = "b" and second = "a"
although it should be equivalent to
SELECT field FROM table WHERE first = "a" and second = "b"
The bug is present only in "thin" Oracle JDBC driver. Changing
driver to "oci8" solves the problem.
* Version and platform info:
I detected the bug using Oracle 8.0.5 server for Linux.
According to $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/README.doc that is
Oracle JDBC Drivers release 8.0.5.0.0 (Production Release)
* The program below:
The program below illustrates the bug by creating dummy two
column table, inserting the row into it and then selecting
the contents using prepared statement. Those operations
are performed on both good (oci8) and bad (thin) connections,
the results can be compared.
You may need to change SID, listener port and account data
in getConnecton calls.
Sample program output:
$ javac ShowBug.java; java ShowBug
Output for both connections should be the same
--------------- thin Driver ---------------
[ Non parametrized query: ]
aaa
[ The same - parametrized (should give one row): ]
[ The same - with buggy reversed order (should give no answers):
aaa
--------------- oci8 driver ---------------
[ Non parametrized query: ]
aaa
[ The same - parametrized (should give one row): ]
aaa
[ The same - with buggy reversed order (should give no answers):
--------------- The end ---------------
