Installing Oracle 11g OCI Driver Configuration Tool

If your database server is Oracle 11g, the Civic Platform servers use the default JDBC thin driver for connecting with the database. If you want to switch to the JDBC OCI driver, you need to install the Oracle OCI driver configuration tool on all the Civic Platform server instances (except for the database server), which can be:

  • Civic Platform web server

  • ColdFusion MX web server

  • Civic Platform Application server

  • Index server

  • Accela Report Writer (ARW) server

  • Accela Document Services (ADS) server

    Note:

    The Oracle OCI driver only works with Civic Platform in Windows Server 2008 64bit and Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit.

Follow the instructions in this section on how to install, maintain, or remove the Oracle 11g OCI driver configuration tool in a Civic Platform server.
