Folks,

I'm trying to setup a connection to ORACLE 12c. I uploaded the JAR file using TW_Download_JDBC Connector Extension. I received an error when "Thing" is saved with the following details:

 

JDBC Driver Class Name: oracle.jbdc.driver.OracleDriver

I tried with "oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver" as well, both are unsuccessful

 

Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Thank you for your response Polina Osipova. I figured out the problem, here are the details which might help others:

1. The server where Thingworx was installed didn't had ojdbc6.jar file under Tomcat\lib folder. Once file is added make sure server is restarted

2. Once the ojdbc6.jar extension is imported into Thingworkx composer, the configuration section holds the following entries:

JDBC Driver Class Name: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver

JDBC Connection String: jdbc:oracle:thin:@//s.com:po

Hi,

There is a small typo in the Class name you provided. Should be jdbc instead of jbdc.

This is what works for me:

    oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver


Thanks,

Asaf.
