Environment

Release : 11.3.6

Component : WORKLOAD CONTROL CENTER

Cause

WCC 11.4.7 is shipping ojdbc7.jar which works with Oracle 19c without enabling network security and data integrity.

The ojdbc8.jar is needed when the network security and data integrity are enabled in the Oracle 19c.

The ojdbc8.jar with WCC 11.4.7 can not be used during installation as all the libraries are getting loaded when the installer is invoked.

The installer does not consider the new libraries.

Resolution

Autosys R12 WebUI works fine with the Oracle 19c as it is shipped with ojdbc8.jar. However, for WCC 11.4.7 the below can be followed as a workaround - 

Install WCC 11.4.7 with derby database.

Replacing ojdbc7*.jar files with ojdbc8.jar in  following WCC install directories:

  • /opt/CA/WorkloadCC/bin/lib/ojdbc7.jar

  • /opt/CA/WorkloadCC/tomcat_32/lib/ojdbc7-12.1.0.2.0.jar

  • /opt/CA/WorkloadCC/tomcat/lib/ojdbc7-12.1.0.2.0.jar

  • /opt/CA/WorkloadCC/tomcat/webapps/collector/WEB-INF/lib/ojdbc7-12.1.0.2.0.jar
