Maven ojbc 6 jar not found in central repository

Question

Hi I have placed ojdbc jar in my local repository still I am getting the below error. Could not resolve dependencies for project Failure to find com.oracle:ojdbc6:jar:11.2.

Answer 1

Make sure jar name includes version:

C:\Rahul\Repository\com\oracle\ojdbc6\11.2.0\ojdb6-11.2.0.jar

Answer 2

download the jar, and install it manually into your maven local cache

mvn install:install-file -Dfile={/path/to/ojdbc.jar} -DgroupId=com.oracle 
-DartifactId=ojdbc6 -Dversion=11.2.0 -Dpackaging=jar

if you have your nexus for your organization it would be better to place it there so it is shared across local developers

Answer 3

Oracle is now exposing a maven repository at maven.oracle.com However you need to be authenticated.

See https://blogs.oracle.com/WebLogicServer/entry/weblogic_server_and_the_oracle

According to the comments in the blog post the ojdbc driver should be available at the following coordinates:

<groupId>com.oracle.weblogic</groupId>
 <artifactId>ojdbc7</artifactId>
 <version>12.1.3-0-0</version>
 <packaging>jar</packaging>
