Just to get started, use the thin driver. It almost never fails. You don't need the Apache stuff. From JDeveloper9i, just create a new

database connection, enter the host, port, sid, userid password and
deploy password. Then test the connection, there is a test page in the
notebook control. If the connection works, you can use it for your

projects.

If you just want to write code that connects to the database, you don't need aforementioned connection.
