New e-Sourcing 5.0 Install - Error checking JDBC Driver version

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am currently attempting to install an e-Sourcing 5.0 Patch Level E instance on a Windows system using Oracle 10.2.0.3 and WebLogic 8.1 SP4. e-Sourcing's installation and configuration complete without issue. The schema in the database is loaded with the e-Sourcing tables and data.

However, when attempting to deploy the ear file via WebLogic, I receive the following JDBC error:

Error checking JDBC Driver version. Detail: Error: found unsupported JDBC Driver name: Oracle JDBC driver version: 10.1.0.2.0.

The JDBC driver in use is from my Oracle install ..\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\jdbc\lib\ojdbc14.jar

I've also tried classes12.jar for versions 9.2.0.8, 10.1.0.2, and 10.2.0.1 but always receive the same error (...driver version: 10.1.0.2.0...) message regardless of the version of driver I am using.

Error Log:

*** Starting Frictionless SRM (5.0.00 E build 08-Apr-2008.16:46) 2009-10-14 20:33:40.656 local3  DEBUG   class=ConfigDatabase;server=CAGTAW804886;method=loadFromServletContext();thread=ExecuteThread: '4' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.System'  Cached weblogic.httpd.servlet.reloadCheckSecs=-1 from servlet context

Given that the database is loaded with the tables and data I know my instance can connect to the DB. Does anyone know why the deployment would complain that the JDBC driver is incorrect? Is there a way to disable the check and complete the server startup? Is there only a single specific driver that is acceptable for this e-Sourcing version?

Thanks,

Greg

The issue was tracked down to a ojdbc14.jar found in the WebLogic installation.

Replacing ..\bea\weblogic81\server\lib\ojdbc14.jar with the jar used during the e-Souring installation resolved the issue.

The issue still persists after many many re-installations. Has nobody encountered this issue before?

The installation has occurred on multiple systems now with no change in the error.

The issue is still occurring.

The Supported Platform documentation indicates that the Oracle JDBC thin driver 10.2.0.1.0 is the supported driver. I have tried both the Classes12.jar and ojdbc14.jar for this version of driver.

What is odd about this error is that it always displays the same message and version #, no matter what version of driver I use.

"found unsupported JDBC Driver name: Oracle JDBC driver version: 10.1.0.2.0" (I execute setup and configuration each time I use a different driver to ensure the ear file is updated)

I have also tried using a different Driver Class path. The installation guides for 5.0 and 5.1 indicate Driver Class as oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver. I have also tried oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver for a few of the versions with no success. I still receive the same error at the same point.

If anyone has run into a similar situation any suggestions or tips to resolving the issue would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Greg
