Hi,

I am getting the following error when I start Weblogic 8.1 through MyEclipse. Note: if I start Weblogic outside of MyEclipse I don’t ge this error. The pool is setup to use the oracle driver that comes with Weblogic 8.1, weblogic.jdbc.oci.xa.XADataSource. I also setup the path under the MyEclipse->Application Servers->Weblogic 8->Paths under ‘Prepend to classpath’ to include c:\bea\weblogic81\server\bin\oci817_8 and c:\oracle\ora81\bin.

From Weblogic log file………………………

Starting Loading jDriver/Oracle …..
<Jul 5, 2004 10:34:43 PM EDT> <Error> <JDBC> <BEA-001150> <Connection Pool “oracle_xa” deployment failed with the following error: Unable to initialize Pooled Resource Factory:
Could not load ‘weblogic.jdbc.oci.xa.XADataSource

If this is a type-4 JDBC driver, it could occur if the JDBC
driver is not in the system CLASSPATH.

If this is a type-2 JDBC driver, it may also indicate that
the Driver native layers(DBMS client lib or driver DLL)
have not been installed properly on your system
or in your PATH environment variable.
This is most likely caused by one of the following:
1. The native layer SO, SL, or DLL could not be found.
2. The file permissions on the native layer SO, SL, or DLL
have not been set properly.
3. The native layer SO, SL, or DLL exists, but is either
invalid or corrupted.

For more information, read the installation documentation
for your JDBC Driver.

Any suggestions?

Does this driver have a supporting DLL that it needs to load? Use the APpend to Library Path to add the DLLs and try again.

Yes, I also tried APPENDING those dll’s to the path as well and I still get that error. The dll’s are in both c:\bea\weblogic81\server\bin\oci817_8 and c:\oracle\ora81\bin directories. I am not sure what MyEclipse is calling to start up WebLogic but when I start WebLogic outside of MyEclipse (C:\bea\user_projects\domains\SymDomain\startWebLogic.cmd) it works fine.

If the driver does require a DLL to run, please follow this FAQ entry for a similar situation and workaround: http://www.myeclipseide.com/FAQ+index-myfaq-yes-id_cat-14.html#105
