Pon selvanGHi Omkar Khandare,

What are steps you have followed for connecting liferay 7 with Oracle as External database ?

Can you share that datails ?

Thanks in Advance.

I was working on Spring MVC portlet in Liferay 7 Community Edition
I written one Java code to connect to Oracle DB and execute query on it to get specific response.
As i mentioned in earlier post my code not able connect to the DB and i was facing JDBC driver issue.
So i have created folder named 'lib' into WEB-INF and put the jar into it.
Following is relevant path.
src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib/ojdbc6.jar
Then i have added below entry into dependencies section of build.gradle file.
compile fileTree(dir: 'lib', include: '**/*.jar')

That's it. Done.

If your project is module type then i think adding Import entry of Oracle jar into the bnd.bnd will help.

Hope this will help you.

Need to connect liferay dxp with oracle as external database. And fetch some details from oracle(2nd D database.

I don't understand... Liferay 7 (CE) - as the subject assumes? Or Liferay DXP (the commercial offering)?
Liferay DXP works with Oracle out of the box. If you're developing your custom components ("2nd database" sounds like it), then I think this is the wrong thread and you should open a new one, post your own code and setup.

Whatever you do, you definitely need the appropriate driver. But without more details, it' impossible (for me) to come up with more details

Thanks. I got below solution and it worked for me.

Done entry in build.gradle dependencies as follows.

compile fileTree(dir: 'lib', include: '**/*.jar')

And I have used manually downloaded ojdbc6-11.2.0.3.jar and kept it into WEB-INF/lib/ojdbc6-11.2.0.3.jar

Here lib folder is created manually.

The code you are linking was created for Liferay 7 CE GA1, and may need to be adopted for GA3 (read: You should not install GA1). Liferay 7 is increasingly modularized, and it is possible that some classes are transferred from the kernel to a module, which breaks the dependencies of the classpath (in the hope of maintaining API compatibility). As the technique to add compatibility with Oracle to Liferay seems pretty brute force (it goes to the global classpath instead of being a module), I can easily imagine it.

I'm not expecting the oracle driver to be available from Maven Central (indeed, see here, only checksums). You might need to provide it yourself - in whatever way you'd like: By manually adding it to the project, by uploading it to your own repository that you're using besides maven central, or any other means.

Hi All,

I want to know Accessing Oracle DB from Liferay 7 CE Gradle Project is possible?
As I am working on such portlet,
I have created Spring MVC Portlet and Added Oracle DB Connection and Other aceess related code and tried adding dependency of Oracle JDBC Driver in build.gradle of project as "compile group: 'com.oracle', name: 'ojdbc14', version: '10.2.0.2.0'",
On "Gradle refresh" in eclipse it doesn't show any error.
But I could not able to build project, It Unable to resolve dependency.

Shows Error as below.

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Could not resolve all files for configuration ':wars:tp-XXXXXX-Portlet:compileClasspath'.
> Could not find ojdbc14.jar (com.oracle:ojdbc14:10.2.0.2.0).
Searched in the following locations:
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/oracle/ojdbc14/10.2.0.2.0/ojdbc14-10.2.0.2.0.jar

Is there any specific version of Oracle supports in such scenario Or How can i achieve such requirement.?

Thanks.

Here's a link to where you can build an Oracle DB driver for yourself: https://www.dontesta.it/en/2016/04/13/liferay-7-ce-how-to-add-support-for-oracle-db/

Neelesh Sahay:

I had read somewhere that Liferay CE GA4 will support Oracle.
Based on your response, does it mean that even Liferay 7 CE GA4 will not support Oracle 12c?

There was no ambiguity in my response.

Some community members have reintroduced support for sql server, I believe, and that might be an avenue for you to pursue creating your own support for oracle, but there is no built in support for commercial databases in Liferay 7 CE.

Come meet me at Devcon 2017 or 2017 LSNA!

bo liu:

Hi all, I recently downloaded liferay 7 CE and trying to connect the database to oracle 12c, could someone tell me is that possible? Is liferay 7 CE compatible with oracle 12c? since I got some errors while trying to connect, if they are not compatible, is there any way around for me to set it up? Thanks!

The open source version of Liferay 7 CE only supports open source databases.
