Unable to connect to Oracle database using Service names

Question

I am using the following LOC for connecting to oracleDB

                    ds.setTNSEntryName(serviceName);
                    ds.setUser(userid);
                    ds.setPassword(password);
                    ds.setDriverType("oci");

                    System.setProperty("oracle.net.tns_admin",oraFilePath);

                    conn = ds.getConnection();  

I am using JDK 1.8.0_131 and oracle 12c 12.1.0.1.0 on my local machine. I am getting the following version conflict .

How can I resolve the version conflict between jdbc and jdbcoci ? Can I control the version of JDBC connection client through POM.xml ? Please suggest my any possible way to connect to oracle database through service_name.

Answer 1

You'll need to specify the thin driver on your datasource:

ds.setDriverType("thin");
