Re: connecting to Oracle using JDBC on windows NT PLATFORM

Hi Chinni,
  I believe your problem is that you have included the classpath to the thin driver, yet your connect string is specifying the oci driver.

So, change the connect string to

DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@<your_machine_name>:<port-no>:<SID>",

    "scott", "tiger");

hope this helps,
cindy
