For future reference... here's how I got things to work. See this document for full documentation of the URL syntax:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/java.101/b10979.pdf This was tested with the ojbdc14.jar (version 10.2x and 10.1x drivers) Basically, I changed the URL syntax from: jdbc:oracle:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port:service jdbc:oracle:thin:user/pw@//localhost:port/service Keith Gunderson Performance Test Analyst IT Audit and Reporting ACT, Inc. 301 ACT Drive Iowa City, IA 52245 (319) 337-1548 Voice (319) 337-1766 Fax |---------+----------------------------> | | [EMAIL PROTECTED]| | | ct.org | | | | | | 03/09/2006 12:42 | | | PM | | | Please respond to| | | "JMeter Users | | | List" | | | | |---------+----------------------------> >--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | | To: "JMeter Users List" <jmeter-user@jakarta.apache.org> | | cc: | | Subject: Re: Can't connect to Oracle-JDBC using JMeter | >--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| I have confirmed the same SQLException happens when I run the URL-query through a small Java app. So, it seems to not a JMeter problem. I'm back to playing with the URL. I'm using JMeter 2.1.1 (Windows-bin) And the Select query type is being used. Sorry to waste the bandwidth! Thanks!

If you can do so easily, it might be an idea. Or you can try playing with the query and/or the URL. [snip] > Could not return Connection java.sql.SQLException: Invalid Oracle URL > specified This suggests that there is a problem with the syntax, rather than a problem finding the driver, so at least some of it is working. Did you set the query type to select? [snip] Which version of JMeter are you using?
