no ocijdbc10 in java.library.path

[Bob Green]

Can someone please help me with this problem:
I am trying to connect an oracle datasource using the oci driver in jasperserver and it gives me the UnsatisfiedLinkError: no ocijdbc10 in java.library.path.

Thanks.

From the javadoc of UnsatisfiedLinkError-

Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine cannot find an appropriate native-language definition of a method declared native.

See if some native library is missing from the path.

Thanks for the response. I am using tomcat 5.5 and I have the ojdbc14.jar in the common/lib directory and the JAVA_OPTS = %JAVA_OPTS% -Djava.library.path="c:\tomcat-5.5\common\lib\ojdbc14.jar"

The UnsatisfiedLinkError is not looking for a JAR file, it is looking for a native library (*.so on Linus/Unix, *.dll on Windows). Apparently the JDBC driver you are using requires a native library to run. That native library is what must be included in java.library.path. And java.library.path should be set to the directory containing the *.so or *.dll, not to the *.so or *.dll itself (same rules as for defining PATH).
