Look for correct ojdbc driver

Support
#1

Hi,
I use Oracle DB 12c and ojdbc8(18.3.0.0.0) driver. It work without problem.
When I try start same project with Oracle DB 19c and ojdbc8(19.3.0.0) - I have a problem:

Caused by: com.haulmont.cuba.core.sys.DbInitializationException: Error connecting to database: Non supported character set (add orai18n.jar in your classpath): CL8MSWIN1251

  •            at com.haulmont.cuba.core.sys.dbupdate.DbUpdaterEngine.dbInitialized(DbUpdaterEngine.java:181)*

  •            at com.haulmont.cuba.core.sys.dbupdate.DbUpdaterImpl.checkDatabaseOnStart(DbUpdaterImpl.java:98)*

  •            ... 39 common frames omitted*

Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: Non supported character set (add orai18n.jar in your classpath): CL8MSWIN1251

What driver (other version driver) you recommend to use with oracle 19c (jdk11)?

Hi,
You need to do exactly what it says: add orai18n.jar to your classpath.

If you look into this page:

You’ll see that Oracle JDBC driver isn’t just one file, it contains several supplementary files that you might need to use in some configurations.

Not being an expert in Oracle, I think that the latest driver is the best choice.
