Don't know how to connect to Oracle database
First time to build the JSP page using DreamWeaver
When I try to add a record set and define the Oracle database connection. I have entered the info
URL:jdbc:oracle:thin:137.1
with its Oracle login user and its password
BUT when i click on the Test button for testing database connection
I got the following error message.
oracle/jdbc/driver/oracleD
Would anyone give me some hints so I can connect the database, thanks?

Have you saw the examples available in that DbConnectionBroker1.0.13.t
For your info, the DBConnectionBroker.class is the compiled java file, you may need to decompile it if you want to see what's the codes written inside, and amend it accordingly.
For Java Decompiler, you can try:

hmm... a bit complicated? hope this is not confusing you... :/

1. Do you mean jdbc:oracle:thin:137.152.4
otherwise it should look like this jdbc:oracle:thin:@137.152.
2. Regarding the 2nd error, classes12.zip / classes12.jar is not in your classpath. Either include classes12.zip/classes12.ja
Hope this helps!!

Forgot to mention: Class OracleDriver is included in classes12.zip file under the package oracle/jdbc/driver
Hi, maybe I'm wrong, but I think if you wanna to connect to oracle, you must have a valid entry for target machine in tnsnames.ora
I hope I'm not out of topic - I connected to oracle database from windows machine, from C#.

Hi, be aware that not all web containers automatically load .zip files from /WEB-INF/lib. You might have better luck if you rename the classes12.zip to classes12.jar.
check you driver classname , it should be oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleD
regarding tnsnames entry / oracle client , these are not required for the thin driver.

Hi! I did define an Oracle database connection in Dreamweaver MX 2004 and got it to work. I am new to Dreamweaver also. Anyway you probably know all this already, but here is what I did for an Oracle Thin Driver connection:
Connection Name: as03
Driver: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleD
URL: jdbc:oracle:thin:@<IP address of server>:1521:<sid_name>
User Name: <some user name on db>
Password: <password>
selected Using Driver On This Machine and then clicked Advanced button and entered a schema in Caps in the Schema input field.
Clicked on Test. It said that it was successful. Clicked on the plus sign beside the connection name in the Databases tab and then clicked on the plus beside tables. The list of tables appeared from that schema.
I figured out the connection but do not understand how to get the jsp file to run in Dreamweaver. I do have the Oracle 9i database software installed on my computer, not just the client. But I would think the client should work. Maybe you got this resolved by now? Hope so!

And what i usually did to connect my Oracle database via JSP is via a ConnectionPool Class, here is a good one:

try look and download for DbConnectionBroker
