Enable Oracle Databases

This topic describes how to enable an Oracle database prior to adding Oracle as a data source.

1. Place the Oracle client driver JAR, ojdb8.jar, in the following locations:

   <installation directory>/shared/ALPINE_DATA_REPOSITORY/jdbc_driver/
   <installation directory>/shared/ALPINE_DATA_REPOSITORY/jdbc_driver/Public
   <installation directory>/shared/libraries

   Note: If the JAR file is not in the correct place, the error "JDBC Driver class not found" appears.

   You can find the Oracle client driver at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/jdbc-112010-090769.html.
2. Set the following permissions on the file:

   chmod 644 ojdbc8.jar
   chown chorus:chorus ojdbc8.jar

3. Set oracle.enabled to true in the chorus.properties file and restart Team Studio.
