O'Reilly has a good article about the performance differences between the oci and the thin client driver: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/jorajdbc/chapter/ch19.html
In order to use the OCI driver you will have to install the oracle client. Then make sure your tnsnames.ora file is correct. Check it with a tnsping. Personally I am sticking with the thin client driver. -James > -----Original Message----- > From: Durham David Cntr 805CSS/SCBE [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, July 11, 2002 9:10 AM > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: RE: JDBC OCI driver + Tomcat 4.04 > > Do you have to install the oracle tnsclient software or something like > that to use OCI? > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Larry Meadors [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, July 11, 2002 9:31 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: JDBC OCI driver + Tomcat 4.04 > > > The OCI driver is *at least* 10X faster than the thin driver.
