When run as a service - the PATH used by SYSTEM is not the same as when you are logged in. (So you need to add the dll's somewhere in your path as SYSTEM user - I can't recall how this is done but this is a very common problem google can help you with)

The type 4 jdbc driver from oracle has been very stable for the last (lot of) years. There really isn't much reason top use the OCI driver.

Hello,
I am trying to run the tomcat as NT Service, but does not seem to work with OCI, if I run the same tomcat instance not as a service but via startup.bat, the OCI JDBC driver works fine. Can anybody help me locate how to fix the service installation script to avoid the exception. Local setup followed - 1) I have installed tomcat 5.5.25.
  2) Installed oracle client installation to use JDBC OCI Driver.
      a) Installed the oracle client installation at location - 
C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1
      b) PATH is updated to reflect the above location for the dlls.
      c) copied the ojdbc14.ar to the %CATALINA_HOME%/commo/lib/ folder.
  3) the context.xml has the OCI URL properly -
   <Resource name="jdbc/provider" auth="Container"
  type="javax.sql.DataSource" driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
  url="jdbc:oracle:oci:@//<IP>:1521/orcl"
  username="UN" password="PWD" maxActive="20" maxIdle="10"
  maxWait="-1"
  removeAbandoned="true"
  removeAbandonedTimeout="60"
  logAbandoned="true"
  />
If i run the %CATALINA_HOME%/bin/startup.bat - the application works fine and the JDBC code excutes properly. To install the tomcat as a service I ran the following script - NOTE - We did specify the -Djava.library.path in the script.

Now when we run the service and start the application - we get the following exception -
  java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: 
C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1\ocijdbc10.dll: Can't find dependent libraries
