I just moved the classes111.zip file. I did not install Oracle. I don't think I should have to, but obviously, I'm missing something I need to connect. (there is no tnsnames.ora, etc) This fails on the new machine. Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver").newInstance(); DriverManager.registerDriver (new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver()); Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:oracle:thin:url:port:instance", "username", "password"); Any ideas what I need to do to get a connection to a DB without having to install oracle on the machine?

Solution: Had to add DNS entry for Oracle host machine to host files on new machine. New machine was missing that entry.

Which version of oracle are you trying to connect to ? Richard I solved this problem. The machine I was on didn't "know" the machine Oracle was on by it's name. Adding an entry to one of the config files for the machine fixed it. It was Oracle 8i. -- -- ~kaeli~ Contrary to popular opinion, the plural of 'anecdote' is not 'fact'. http://www.ipwebdesign.net/wildAtHeart http://www.ipwebdesign.net/kaelisSpace Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         AppletTalk.com Forum Index -> Java and Databases All times are GMT Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Java Newsgroups----------------Java DiscussionsWeb-based java games comp.lang.java 3D Graphics API's for Java Java: Support and criticism Java System Announcements comp.lang.java.api JavaBeans Java and CORBA Java and Databases comp.lang.java.developer Java GUI Toolkits Java Help comp.lang.java.javascript JVM, native methods and hardware comp.lang.java.misc Java Language Programming Security and Java comp.lang.java.setup Java Software Tools comp.lang.java.tech ibm.software.java.linux  Non-English Java Newsgroups----------------Java Language (German)Language Java (Français)Java (Italian)  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2006 phpBB Group SEO toolkit © 2004-2006 webmedic.
