Oracle in MX7 Standard

[Dgcotton]

I don't have an option for creating a DSN in MX7 Standard. Can anyone assist with help getting this installed or configured?

I noticed that Enterprise has it, but appears that standard does not.

The drivers for Oracle don't ship with Standard, but you can connect to
any database from Standard that has a JDBC driver. You just have to
download the JDBC drivers from Oracle's web site and then use the
"Other" datasource in CF. This should get you started:

The gist of what you have to do is get the JDBC drivers, put them in
CF's classpath, and then create this "other" datasource in the CF
administrator and tell it to use the Oracle drivers.
