No suitable driver found for “jdbc:oracle:thin:@**** ”oracle/jdbc/driver/OracleDriver";

Question

here is my java code

public static Map propertyFileReader() {
    Map map=new HashMap();
           


        

Answer 1

You are using wrong package to refer OracleDriver class
Change

oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver  

To

oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver  

From oracle docs class definition

public class OracleDriver
              extends oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver

The Oracle JDBC driver class that implements the java.sql.Driver interface.

Answer 2

Use this as Oracle Driver

oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver 

instead of

oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver

Answer 3

This answer is a "bit" late, but the accepted answer is not correct, so I post this for anybody unfortunate enough to attempt to copy/paste the code and wondering what went wrong.

The accepted answer is so far correct that

oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver

is deprecated, but it is still working in 2020. The problem with the posted code is that the properties file is using semicolons and quotation marks, which are not valid. So changing the properties file from

DB_DRIVER = "oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver";
DB_CONNECTION2 = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@10.2.5.23:1521:dbslic";
DB_USER = "TSR_MOBILE";
DB_PASSWORD = "TSR_MOBILE";

to

DB_DRIVER = oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
DB_CONNECTION2 = jdbc:oracle:thin:@10.2.5.23:1521:dbslic
DB_USER = SR_MOBILE
DB_PASSWORD = TSR_MOBILE

makes the error go away.
