[Quoted] I'm using Oracle 8.1.5 Enterprise Edition under Windows 2000, Service Pack [Quoted] 1. I'm trying to write some Java code that accesses an Oracle database [Quoted] (the starter DB that gets installed during the standard Oracle installation [Quoted] process). I'm running JDK 1.3. The code looks like this:

DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver()); String user, password, url;

// Get user, password, url inputs
...

Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:oci8:_at_" +

   url, user, password)

Upon execution of this last statement, an execution is thrown with the following output:

Connecting ... Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: make_c
_state

        at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:177)

Can anyone help me out as to what's going on here? Note that it doesn't [Quoted] work with the thin driver either (although different exceptions result there). I can communicate with the same database using SQLPlus, and everything works fine from there. Interestingly, the Oracle ODBC Test also [Quoted] craps out in try to connect to the database, although I'm not sure that I [Quoted] have the ODBC source configured properly. The Oracle documentation isn't [Quoted] of much help in this process.

Help!
