Installing with an Oracle database

Before you install the server, install the Oracle database and have the JDBC JAR file for the installation process.

When you install IBM® UrbanCode Build, you must have the Oracle connection information,and a user account with at least these minimum privileges:

IBM UrbanCode Build supports these database editions:

Version 10g or later is supported for each edition.

To install the database

  1. Obtain the Oracle JDBC driver. The JDBC JAR file is included with the Oracle installation files. The driver is unique to the edition that you are use.

  2. Copy the JDBC JAR file to installer_directory\lib\ext directory.

  3. Begin to install the server. See Installing the server in interactive mode. When you are prompted for the database type, enter oracle.

  4. Provide the JDBC driver class that IBM UrbanCode Build uses to connect to the database.

    The default value is oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver.

  5. Provide the JDBC connection string. The format depends on the JDBC driver. It is in this format:

    jdbc:oracle:thin:@DB_URL:DB_PORT:SID

    This example shows a JDBC connection string:

    jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE

  6. Finish by entering the database user name and password.

Note: The schema name must be the same as the user name.
