The thin driver is a pure Java driver it is platform independent.
The fact that you mention 'for Solaris' suggest to me that you have
actually downloaded the OCI driver which should be faster but
platform specific.
You don't specify what you mean by 'doesn't work' but I suggest that
you first verify you can log-in from a SQL+ prompt. Then check
the URL it should be of the form>:
jdbc:oracle:thin:@<host>:<port>:<sid>
<host>, <port> and <sid> can be found in your tnsnames.ora file
if you have a working connection

Subject: UNAUTHENTICATED: Oracle JDBC
I need to access an Oracle Database in a Windows NT server from an Apache
web server running on Linux RedHat 6.1.
I've downloaded the JDBC Oracle thin client for solaris, but it doesn't seem
to work.
Is the problem that the thin client that I have is made for Solaris and not
for Linux?
or the problem is that I have not installed such thin client properly?
If the problem is the first one, Where can I obtain a JDBC Oracle client for
Linux RedHat 6.1?
Thank you guys!
