Re: Problems setting up JDBC Drivers to run on Win98

[Val_Gamerman/Victoria_Financial . VICTORIA_FINANCIAL]

I can not speak without seeing your autoexec.bat if you have a prblem with
PATH, however it should not matter if you switch to thin drivers (BTW, you
can dwonload them for free from technet.oracle.com)

Your problem is CLASSPATH.

Identify the jar file (or ZIP file I think that's how Oracle ships their
JDBC drivers). For instance JDBC thins drivers for Oracle 7 should be
called something like classes111.zip.

Change your autoexec.bat to set a CLASSPATH variable to:
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;\full\path\classes111.zip

I don't know what version of JDK you are using that's why I included
%CLASSPATH%.

In general search the net you will find lot's of detailed instructions on
how to setup your PC to run Java and JDBC.

Here is some clarification. I downloaded the OCI drivers from Oracle's
website. I could not find the thin drivers anywhere. If anyone knows
where I can get the thin drivers from, it would be helpful. I double
checked for spaces in the PATH statement, there is none. Not unless
quotes around the PATH value are an issue.let me know on this. My DOS
knowledge is fading..  If Oracle7 for HP-UX came with oci or thin
drivers, I'm not experience enough to identify them, especially when
they have never been used before. The error message we get from
executing javac is as follows:
javac JdbcCheckup.java
19: cannot resolve symbol
symbol:  class Oracle Driver
location: package driver
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver())
Thanks for any help.
