The second two errors are expected given the ORACLE classes are compiled such that a new JRE is required.
CA is using JRE 8 and you would be using using IBM JRE or perhaps ORACLE JRE.
That said, when you say 'does not connect' you did not provide any details.
Suggest you open a support call if you have a support account.

Thank you NIGEL ... but it seams does not work.
When using ojdbc8 for Oracle Database 19c (19.22.0.0) - it Implements JDBC 4.2 spec and certified with JDK8, JDK11, JDK17, and JDK19. It does not connect.
When using ojdbc10 for Oracle Database 19c (19.22.0.0)- it implements JDBC 4.3 spec and certified with JDK11 and JDK17. XQE-GEN-0002 An unexpected exception occurred: JVMCFRE199E bad major version 55.0 of class=oracle/jdbc/OracleDriver, the maximum supported major version is 52.0; offset=6
When using ojdbc11 for Oracle Database 23c (23.3.0.23.09) - it implements JDBC 4.3 spec and certified with JDK11, JDK17, JDK19, and JDK21. XQE-GEN-0002 An unexpected exception occurred: JVMCFRE199E bad major version 55.0 of class=oracle/jdbc/OracleDriver, the maximum supported major version is 52.0; offset=6
CA is using:

You have put a copy of a JAR file into <cognos>\drivers compiled for a higher Java version such as Java 11, 17 etc..
See ojdbc8.

Hello...
Currently moving from CA11.2.2 to CA12.0.2.
Everything works fine EXCEPT connection to Oracle Data Source (that BTW it works fine on CA11.2.2)
XQE-GEN-0002 An unexpected exception occurred: JVMCFRE199E bad major version 55.0 of class=oracle/jdbc/OracleDriver, the maximum supported major version is 52.0; offset=6
We are using the same drivers as CA11.2.2.
We tried using bundled CA12.0.2 JRE and also 8.0-8.20 IBM JRE.
Any thoughts.
Thank you ...
