need help on weblogic jdriver for oracle

[Wei Liu]

HI,
I downloaded weblogic jdriver for oracle, installed it. I had oracle 8
installed on my machine already. I made ORACLE_HOME\bin the very first thing
in my path and also added WEBLOGIC_OCI_DIR\bin\oci815_8 in the path. I could
use sqlplus to connect to my oracle database, but using the weblogic jdbc, I
always get the following exception, no matter how I tried it: using
weblogic, seperated application or using utils.dbping. My os is winNT4.
Could anybody tell me what might go wrong? Helps are greatly appriciated.

Wei

Hi Wei,

This exception mean that driver can not find
specified database. In your case you need
to correct URL to the following form:

@hostname:portNumber:databaseName

or @server:dbname
