Hi,

I am having this problem with Oracle8i JDBC OCI8 driver on Linux. After installation and configuration of tnsnames.ora file, I ran the sample program, JdbcCheckup and got the following error:

Connecting to the database...Connecting... java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: ocijdbc8

The installation was OK. (libocijdbc8.so is in $ORACLE_HOME/lib) And tnsnames.ora is also fine (I checked with sqlplus user/passwd_at_SID). It seems to me that the program did not even try the connection.

Oracle8.1.6, Linux Red Hat 6.0 and JDK 1.1.

Could somebody tell me what may cause this? thanks in advance.
