Hi I working with
jboss-4.0.4.GA
jboss-portal-2.2.1-SP1
DB: Oracle10gR2

I need your help I can't deploy Jboss portal and I think the problem is with the Oracle driver or the DS configuration.
The only thing I did is that I put the OJDBC14 in the lib directory
did I had to do any other thing? there there ony other drivers
I dont have any clue I tried to find on the net and I didn't find any solution

this is the portal-oracle-ds.xml I configured


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<local-tx-datasource>
<jndi-name>PortalDS</jndi-name>
<connection-url>jdbc:oracle:thin:@linux-oradev10:1521:newcrm</connection-url>
<driver-class>oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</driver-class>
<user-name>portal</user-name>
rndportal
</local-tx-datasource>

the startup log is (sorry for taking to much forum space...)
