Hi, To use the thin driver from oracle with in your servlets/jsp you must put the driver into your classpath. the simplest way to do this is to move classes12.jar (for oracle 8i) into the folder yourwebapp/WEB-INF/lib/ I must admit that I have no Idea if the jar files are installed anywhere with oracle or not, but at least you can get the driver at oracles website. http://otn.oracle.com/software/content.html
choose JDBC drivers... I think that should be enough. if not, post your error messages here. hope it helps -reynir � hubner -----Original Message----- From: John Wadkin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 17. jan�ar 2002 16:57 To: Tomcat Users List (E-mail) Subject: TomCat 4, Servlets & Oracle JDBC I'm charged with the task of getting a servlet working using Apache 1.3, TomCat 4 and Oracle on a Unix platform. The servlet parses xml documents into HTML pages with content taken from an Oracle database via jbdc (thin) drivers. My question relates to the jdbc drivers bit - as I understand it, the drivers should install with Oracle. Is further configuration needed? For example, do I have to do anything with TomCat? I've had a look on the net and at the documentation/faqs on the Apache site and haven't been able to find anything other than vague details. Apologies if I've repeated a well-asked question!
