Oracle url problem

Question

Hi there,
I'm trying to make a program to access a oracle table for the first time and I'm I'm having problems with the following command
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection( url, "internal", "kirchner" );
where
String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:2481:mib";
and mib is the ORACLE_SID.
Does anyone have any idea what can be the problem? By the way, am I supposed to install something besides Java and Oracle or change any configuration?
Thanks,
Andre

Hi Joel,
thanks a lot for the help. Now I could make it work fine using the Oracle thin driver as you said, but whn I try to use the SUN JDBC-ODBC BRIDGE I get the following error
java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
     at sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbc.createSQLException(JdbcOdbc.java:6106)
     at sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbc.standardError(JdbcOdbc.java:6263)
     at sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbc.SQLDriverConnect(JdbcOdbc.java:2488)
     at sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcConnection.initialize(JdbcOdbcConnection.java:317)
     at sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver.connect(JdbcOdbcDriver.java:160)
     at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:512)
     at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:171)
     at com.sieg.MIB.Test.<init>(Test.java:11)
at com.sieg.MIB.Program.<init>(Program.java:7)
     at com.sieg.MIB.Program.main(Program.java:12)
Process exited with exit code 1.
these source I used for this teste is the following on
package test;
import java.sql.*;
public class Test
..public Test()
....try
......Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
......Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:odbc:mib", "test", "123teste123" );
....catch( Exception theException )
......theException.printStackTrace();
......System.exit( 1 );
what can be the problem now? Don't I need to specify the port and IP address where the Oracle listener is listening?
Thanks,
Andre
