Re: Trouble installing JDBC driver for Java 1.2 in Solaris

Yes and we have the same problem too, with Solaris, Oracle7.3 and a really simple program. The hint with LD_DEBUG="libs" helped us tofind the following error message:

 relocation error:
file /opt/jdk122/lib/liboci73jdbc.so: symbol makeJavaString: referenced symbol not found

So the problem is not to find the library, but to find a symbol within this library. My theory is, that the jdk1.2.2 calls another function in the Oracle shared library than jdk1.1 would do. The only solutions I can imagine is to go back to jdk 1.1.x or to use a generic driver which is not from Oracle.
Any other suggestions or solutions?

Cheers, Daniel
