I'm kinda desperate... I don't have enough experience with installing
drivers.. I looked at dozens of sites how to get JDBC-drivers to work.
First of all, which drivers should i use? The thick(OCI) or thin drivers.
Thin drivers are fine, they are 100% Java, don't use native code and don't require installation of the Oracle client. Only if you find some shortcomings with them, you should think about switching to the OCI driver.
I want to make a connection from my desktop(WINNT) to an oracle database
(8.1.7.4). What are the actual steps I need to undertake to get this thing
running....
Put the driver's JAR (ojdbc14.jar typically, but it depends on the version) in WEB-INF/lib.
And i see so many different connection string examples it drives me
crazy.... So please mention these for OCI/thin if you have got it working.
jdbc:oracle:thin:@<hostname>:<port>:<sid>
Substitute suitable values for <hostname>, <port> (usually 1521) and <sid> (ask your DBA) and you should be set. The classname of the driver is oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
