Oracle 8.1.5 - jdbc driver problem

I am using Oracle8.1.5 (personal oracle) for database. I am trying to retrieve the data from JAVA(JDK 1.3). I use the following driver and its manager in the Java program:-
DriverManager.registerDriver(new Oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
Class.forName("Oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
However Java is not getting compiled with the following error message:-
Cannot resolve symbol:
package: driver
class: DriverManager
I would request your goodselves to help me out. Thank you in anticipation.
Regards,
Sivaswamy

Thanks for the reply.
Have you tried manually taking the current time and
converting it to the way Oracle is expecting it? If I embed a TO_DATE and format it, it works fine, but I want to stay database independent. Is that want you mean?
Or how about using new java.util.Date() to get the
current date?Not sure I follow you:
--- insertStmt.setTimestamp(5, new java.sql.Date(System.currentTimeMillis()));
Gives an error since setTimestamp expects a java.sql.Timestamp and
--- insertStmt.setDate(5, new java.sql.Date(System.currentTimeMillis()));
Only stores the date without the time.
Thanks again,
Todd

Oracle 8.1.5 JDBC driver problem with LONGVARCHAR

Hi, I'm having problem with 8.1.5 release on Solaris with the
JDBC type 4 driver (thin). If I create the following table
create table test1 (col1 NUMBER, col2 LONG);
Using JDBC driver to insert into the second column any string
longer than 4000 characters causing run time exception. The type2
driver works fine, but type2 is slow.
String sql = "insert into test1 (col1, col2) values (1099,?)";
PreparedStatement stmt ;
stmt = conn.prepareStatement(sql);
// create a string with very long value , bigger than 4096
stmt.setString(1,string);
stmt.executeUpdate();

Can oracle 8.1.6SDK JDBC driver talk to Oracle8.0.5 db?

Hi,
Can Oracle 8.1.6SDK JDBC drivers (both thin and OCI) talk to
Oracle database 8.0.5? My web server and database server sit on
same machine. Can I have oracle 8.1.6 JDBC driver installed in

Bonjourno,
What is the URL of this FAQ ? I could not find it.
Does the above assertions also apply to the JDK 1.2 (thin)
driver of Oracle 8.1.6 ?
Otherwise, there is no way to use JDK 1.2 with Oracle 7.3.4.
Thank you,

Oracle jdbc driver problems in netbeans 5.5

need help again....i'm experience a problem. the problems are :
i connect from netbeans 5.5 to oracle database express client 10g using jdbc driver ojdbc14.jar. the connection succeded (all the tables appears and i even can view the data). but when i trying to bind data to a drop down list component (with right click to the dropdown list component and then bind data), the dataprovider of that table appear in red color and there's no field appears in that. i'm so confused? i already add the ojdbc14.jar driver to the following path :
1. i create a new class library in netbeans with consist of that driver,
then added to my project (right click in my project then add library).
2. then i added the ojdbc14.jar driver to my tomcats lib at "C:\Program
Files\netbeans-5.5\enterprise3\apache-tomcat-5.5.17\common\lib".
Is there any additional settings in using oracle jdbc driver? Does anyone knows? thanks a lot for the answers...

Hi!
I'm using NetBeans 6.5 and I'm having some troubles to connect.
The steps I've made:
- Create the connection pool in Glassfish, nothing special, just standard parameters (Based on javax.sql.DataSource and including URL, Username and Password).
- Create the JDBC resource associated with that connection pool,let's say jdbc/test.
Now in NetBeans I register the driver:
- New driver -> Find the ojdbc14.jar and from the options that I can choose it shows: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver and oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver.
If i choose without +.driver+ I got the thin drivers (the ones i want) and if i chosse the one with the other one I got the OCI drivers. So I choose the first option oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
- Then I go to my project and click New -> Entity Classes from Database and from Datasource I select jdbc/test and it shows the following error message:
Unable to find the driver oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver. Please register this driver in the Databases.
I can fix it if while registering the ojdbc14.jar I select the second option (*oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver*) but with this option I need to specity the connection to use OCI instead of the desired thin driver.
I hope you'll understand and help me somehow

Oracle JDBC driver problem for Oracle 8.1.6

i am a newbee to Java, i was trying JDBC programming thru Jbuilder 4.0. now the problem is whenever i am trying the DriverManager.getconnection(), I am getting an error "NO SUITABLE DRIVER". i have downloaded jodbc14.jar(oracle 9i JDBC driver) but so result. what can i do now? any other config issues or is it due to absence of a Oracle JDBC driver of Oracle 8.1.6.

Oracle JDBC Driver Problem

Hi,
When I write code as
Resultset rs = .....
rs.last();
there is no problem for MySQL JDBC Driver, but when I use this code for Oracle, I am getting error with line 2. Why ? Do you know any Oracle JDBC Driver that supports "rs.last()" ? Or is there another way to handle it?
Thanks.

Most of the JDBC Drivers can handle "rs.last()".
The question here is, how do you create a Scrollable ResultSet using DatabaseMetaData, or if this is even possible.
A thorough read of the API docs, for the Classes and methods being used here will answer this question (now that you know what the actual question is).

Oracle JDBC driver problem for Canada locale

Hi, there:
I have problem on Oracle JDBC thin driver with Canada locale on client side:
I'm using Oracle9i thin jdbc driver, the nls parameters in oracle database is:
NLS_LANGUAGE: AMERICAN
NLS_TERRITORY: AMERICA
NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS : .,
My java client side is running on Windows NT, which using jdbc thin driver to connect oracle database. If I set the locale in client side as "English(Canada)", it seems return me "French" number format, like ",45" (comma, instead of decimal point) for "0.45". However, If I set client side locale as "English(United States)", it returns me "0.45" as expected.
So, my question: does Oracle JDBC driver always returns "French" number format evenif I set "English(Canada)" as locale? Because Canada have both English and French locale "French(Canada), and English(Canada)". How can I get "English" number format like "0.45" with "English(Canada)" locale setting?
Really appreciated any reply, and thanks a lot in advance
David

Sounds like a question for Oracle Support to me.
Anyway, the way to avoid the problem is to not ask Oracle to format numbers. Get the number directly (via ResultSet.getInt() or getDouble() or whatever) and ask Java to format it.

but could not select the driver since it is marked as red (uninstalled). How can I made jdbc driver to available to jbuilder.?. I am using oracle 8i. Will oracle 8i supports jdk 1.3 b��cos I have noticed the jbuilder supports from jdk 1.3 onwards. So plse correct me if I am wrong
waiting for reply

thanks for u'r reply.
you mean to say i need to install the new JDBC driver (Classes12.zip and nls_charset12) to the oracle/ora8i/jdbc/lib folder.currently this folder contains only classes102 and classes11.zip files and the corresponding charset only.After instaling the new classes12.zip file do i need to set the classpath?.

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?

Thanks,

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

Oracle 10.1.0 jdbc driver and 9i Database

JDBC Driver problem when using JDeveloper 10.1.2 with JDK 1.4

I hope someone can help me solve this problem (which I am sure others have encountered).
The JDK that is downloaded together with JDeveloper 10.1.2 is JDK 1.4.2. However, I believe the JDBC jar files that comes together with JDeveloper 10.1.2 are for JDK 1.2 : classes12.jar, classes12dms.jar and nls_charset12.
What I did was I replaced the JDeveloper 10.1.2 JDBC (JDK 1.2) jar files with the JDBC jar files from JDeveloper 10.1.3 download i.e. ocrs12.jar, ojdbc14.jar, ojdbc14dms.jar and orai18n.jar and then create a new JDBC Library which references these new jar files. I was able to successfully run my applications (under my modified JDeveloper 10.1.2) using this new JDBC library (instead of the original 'Oracle JDBC' library). However, when I created a Database Connection in this modified JDeveloper 10.1.2, the connection was unsuccessful. I received the error message "Unable to find driver: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver".
My organisation requires me to use JDK 1.4.2 and therefore I cannot use JDeveloper 10.1.3 (which I did not encounter any JDBC problem) as it is certified to run only on JDK 1.5.
Please help. Thanks.

JDev 10.1.2 is quite old, and was never certified for Windows 2008.

WLS6.1 SP4 weblogic JDBC driver problem

Hi,
We have a big Oracle table (more than 13000000 rows). The query cost by SP2 weblogic
driver is about 200 milli-second while SP4 cost is more than 200 seconds. Does
anyone know how to fix the problem? Our Orale is 9.2.0.1. The test program is
a simple java application running on Sun 5.8, JDK 1.3.1_02-b02.

amyshuai wrote:
We are using the weblogic jdbc driver. The connection is from JDBCTxDataSource.
Problem can be solved by using oracle jdbc driver 9.0.1.4, but we are curious
why
the jdbc driver can impact the query performance so much?So all connections are coming through our pool, and you found a performance
regression in our Oracle driver between sp2 and sp4, which you work around
by using Oracle's own driver. Is that correct?
thanks,

Microsoft SQL Server JDBC Driver problem

Hi all,
I've downloaded the JDBC driver for SQL Server 2000 from Microsoft website and I
tried creating connection pool in Weblogic (WL 6.1 SP2).
Following are the configuration from the admin console,
Name - SQL2K
URL - jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://127.0.0.1:1433
Driver Classname - com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
ACLName - sa
Password - tonypet
After creating the config, I select to chose the target server from the Servers tab
in Targets main tab in the admin console and when I click on Apply I saw in the WL
server command prompt the following error,
<16/07/2002 11:22:55> <Error> <JDBC> <Cannot startup connection pool "SQL2K" Cannot
load driver class: com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver>
I have assigned the classpath env var as follows,

I've tried even copying the .JAR files to the ext and lib directory of bea directory
but I'm getting the same error.
Can anyone help me please.
Thanks a lot for your help

Hi. You will also be wanting to add this property for the pool to apply to that driver:

After fiddling around I found a solution (hope this will help those who are having
the same problem),
1. Make sure you add the complete directory of the library of the .JAR files in the
classpath in the STARTWEBLOGIC.CMD, I made a mistake of specifying the path in the
CLASSPATH and NOT IN the STARTWEBLOGIC.CMD as the classpath is overriden in the STARTWEBLOGIC.CMD
file.
2. The other thing I found was the configuration setting. I put the full settings
in the URL in admin console as follows,
jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://127.0.0.1:1433;user=nanik;password=tonypet;databasename=scriptbuilder
When I put it individually in the Properties filed it won't work as it is not picking
it up from there but when I moved it to the URL and put it all together it worked
fine.
Whew !!! it's been a looong day, hope the info will help.
Cheers

Hi all,
I've downloaded the JDBC driver for SQL Server 2000 from Microsoft website
and I
tried creating connection pool in Weblogic (WL 6.1 SP2).
Following are the configuration from the admin console,
Name - SQL2K
URL - jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://127.0.0.1:1433
Driver Classname - com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
ACLName - sa
Password - tonypet
After creating the config, I select to chose the target server from the
Servers tab
in Targets main tab in the admin console and when I click on Apply I saw
in the WL
server command prompt the following error,
<16/07/2002 11:22:55> <Error> <JDBC> <Cannot startup connection pool "SQL2K"
Cannot
load driver class: com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver>
I have assigned the classpath env var as follows,
CLASSPATH=;.;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\msbase.jar;C:\Program
Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\msutil.jar;
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\mssqlserver.jar;c:\bea\wlserver6.1\lib\weblogic.jar
I've tried even copying the .JAR files to the ext and lib directory of bea
directory
but I'm getting the same error.
Can anyone help me please.
Thanks a lot for your help

JDBC Driver Problems for Oracle 10

Trying to setup an OCI driver in our system but keep getting this response.
INFO 2005-12-02 08:49:40,868 [STDOUT] java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: C:\_EP\coldfusion\cfusion\lib\ocijdbc10.dll: The specified procedure could not be found
INFO 2005-12-02 09:02:35,008 [STDOUT] A non-SQL error occurred while requesting a connection from DEVX2
INFO 2005-12-02 09:02:35,008 [STDOUT] Timed out trying to establish connection
That file exists on that path, so I'm not sure if this message means that it can't find that dll, or a procedure within that dll.
If I set it up to use the thin client... no problems. This is very strange. ojdbc14.jar is on the classpath as well as all the DLLs needed, and I have the client installed on my machine.
What else could I possibly need?

Prior to 10g, Oracle claimed to require the entire Oracle client installation for the OCI driver to work; allegedly you couldn't just pick up the dlls you needed...
With 10g, they've supplied a stripped down "Instant Client" that has just the bare bones stuff (it's still 10MB, zipped):
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/htdocs/winsoft.html
They still recommend that you install the client and add an entry to your classpath and path variables rather than trying to pick and choose what you need. I believe the 10g OCI driver is still dependent on an Oracle Net installation (which would be part of the Instant Client install, if required).
BTW, last I knew (last year), Macromedia was discouraging the use of the OCI driver with Cold Fusion.
Personally, I'm not aware of any significant benefits the OCI driver would provide a Cold Fusion installation. The only good reasons I've ever heard of for using the OCI driver are: to connect via IPC instead of TCP/IP (requires the database be running on the same server as the Java program), to use TAF, to use the OCI connection pooling for connection multiplexing, to take advantage of some slight performance gains with stored procedure calls. While not an expert in this area, I think only the first could possibly apply to use with Cold Fusion. The myth that OCI is substantially faster for standard SQL (non stored procedures) has been repeatedly debunked.
