  • 1.  COGNOS ANALYTICS 12.0.2 x Oracle Data Server Connection

    Posted Fri February 23, 2024 04:08 PM

    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 ...

    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.

    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: 

    Any thoughts ?

    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.
