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 ??

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.

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Everything is working but wanted to know if there is a newer version of the Oracle Thin Driver for JDBC?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.

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.

Does oracle 8.1.6.0 jdbc thin driver support jdk1.3 and oracle 8.0.5 database ?

I have downloaded oracle 8.1.6.0 jdbc thin driver(named classes12.zip) to run with jdk1.3 to access oracle 8.0.5, but when I compile and run the jdbccheckup.java downloaded from oracle website like this:
javac -classpath d:\jdbc\classes12.zip jdbccheckup.java
(compile succeed)
java -classpath d:\jdbc\classes12.zip jdbccheckup
an error occured:

Why??????

Try this isntead.
java -classpath d:\jdbc\classes12.zip;. jdbccheckup
an error occured:

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):

Oracle JDBC Thin Driver

I am using CLOBS with the Oracle thin driver and am experiencing horrible performance. We need datavalues more than a VARCHAR2 and have used CLOB but the method Oracle uses to get the data in and out is super slow.
MS SQL Server JDBC with text is awesome and fast. But Oracle is slow and very cumbersome.
Help

We are using 9.0.2.
So what you are saying is although the column is CLOB
in Oracle 10 g we can use a normal result set
rset.getString( 1 ) no special oracle stuff just the
e Oracle thin driver for 10g?
Also this will retrieve a String greater than 4000
bytes?Exactly. Not only you can retieve a clob as string, you can also insert clob
as a string too. Here is the code I referred in last post in case you do not

Oracle JDBC thin driver question

Does anyone know if there is a JDBC thin driver available for Oracle that supports "HTTP tunneling" of the SQLNET wire protocol?
Such a driver would package the SQL*NET data stream into HTTP or HTTPS packets and connects to a Servlet proxy on the Web host that unpacks the data and forwards the SQL*NET stream to the Oracle RDBMS and returns the response the same way.
This would help me overcome some firewall issues I'm seeing since HTTP/HTTPS ports are usually opened through a firewall. I know Sybase has a JDBC dirver that does this for their TNS protocol and was hoping some company has developed this for Oracle.
Thanks in advance...

The easiest thing to do is download it as an archive with your applet.
Otherwise, you have to have the files on every client machine.
For netscape, put the classes111.jar in the java classes folder typically:
c:\ProgramFiles\Netscape\Communicator\Program\java\classes.
I'd expect that IE would be setup in a similar way.

Jdbc thin driver to connect oracle as internal

Hi Minol,
Have a look at this code example that shows how to Connect to Database as internal ( as sysdba ). In this code sample the properties are hard-coded, you can supply these Properties by loading them from a properties file.
