Hello,

    I am a student and I'm trying to connect to an oracle database using java.

I do

import java.sql.*;

DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());

con = DriverManager.getConnection(veraURL, VERALOGIN, VERAPASSWORD);

but I get all sorts of these kinds of errors Error 0: null; java.sql.SQLException: The Network Adapter could not establish th
e connection
java.sql.SQLException: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection

Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm running it on solaris and using oracle8i
