The problem is not that it can't create the driver, but that it does not find the specified class, because oracle.jdbc is not a Java class. If you want to use the Oracle thin or oci driver you have to provide the Oracle Driver shipped with Oracle. The file is into classes111.zip or classes112.zip depending on your release. See into the /oracle/jdbc/lib directory on your installation.
