Error while trying to connect to database through eclipse database development perspective

Question

This is error stack trace i am getting...

Could not connect to mydb. Error creating SQL Model Connection connection to mydb. (Error: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver) oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver Error creating JDBC Connection connection to mydb. (Error: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver) oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver.

I am using oracle thin driver to connect to database..

SID: db

Host: localhost

Port number 1521

User name: system

Password:

Connection URL: jdbc:oraclethin:©lccalhost:1521:db

I can't even able to ping the database...

Answer 1

There is a typo in your connection URL. It says lccalhost instead of localhost . Try:

jdbc:oraclethin:©localhost:1521:db

Furthermore, your log says mydb instead of db as stated in your connection settings. So, this may be another possible cause of fault.

Answer 2

I think you are using xpress edition 11-g and if so then try changing the SID from db to xe and then it should work fine . If you are using the standard edition then you must check with the odbc jars . Try adding odbc6 jar
