I had some problems with the type 4 driver (they call them JDBC Thin) since it does not support LOBs (or at least I wasn't able to get them working). You can get these for Oracle 7/8 at http://www.oracle.com/products/free_software/index.html. The type 2 drivers for Linux were just released recently along with the database engine, you can get these from http://technet.oracle.com. (Warning: you need to register and this package is ~100M, I don't believe you can just download the type 2 drivers by themself.) Jason
Re: Linux + java + oracle
Just guessing here, but if you're referencing the oci8 driver from an applet, it may have problems with the native call within Netscape. Try to change the url to use the thin driver. This driver doesn't seem to work 100%, it doesn't appear to support LOB's, but it should perform most normal functions. I too have a similar setup (Linux 2.0.35, JDK 1.1.7, Oracle 8.0.5) and have been using the oci driver within application code without a hitch. I haven't tried any applets that make direct db calls though. "Robert P.

Re: Oracle's JDBC on Linux
Are you sure about that? I've been using the 8.1.5 thin drivers with jdk1.1.7v2 on a RedHat 5.9/6.0 system without any problems.

Re: netscape 4.61, Java, Redhat 6.0
I've tried the libc5 version from several sources (Netscape with libc compat libs, with 5.4.33 libc from theofilu, Mandrake RPMS, ...) and now I get tons of those pesky "subprocess diagnostics" windows that lockup Netscape. Does anyone know what causes these and how to fix it? This doesn't occur in the glibc version but I can't stand the random maxed cpu much longer.
