im trying to connect to an Oracle database...using the OCI method

my java code is on my machine and the database (and table )instance is on the host Im trying to establish a connection to

The statement

Connection conn=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:oci8:@VIS", "abi", "abi");

where VIS is the Instance for the ORASID and abi, abi are the username and passowords respectively ....

gives me the following error.

package oracle.jdbc.driver does not exist

do i have to install some driver info on the host which has the database instance where I am trying to connect ?

and do I have to make changes in the classpath ?

Infact...even the import statement...
import oracle.jdbc.driver.*;
seems to throw an error...

someone please advice me ...especially with regard to the driver info and classpath ..

Thank you very much..

Regards
Abhijeet

You need to add the JDBC classesxxx.zip to your CLASSPATH. This file will be in $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib.
