Recently upgraded to 11g client on my cognos servers... from 10g.
in the past ive used ojdbc14.jar and everything worked like a champ.
I noticed there are 4 new jar files in the 11g installation... and cognos documentation says use ojdbc5.jar
within E:\app\cognosadmin\product\11.1.0\client_1\jdbc\lib
there are 4 jar files
ojdbc5.jar
ojdbc5_g.jar
ojdbc6.jar
ojdbc6_g.jar
what are the difference?
and should my installation include both ojdbc14.jar as well as ojdbc5.jar?
Thanks and apologies for possibly a dumb question,
Kirby
p.s. metrics is throwin an error when i open the studio. everythign else seems to be working fine. the error is this "'no ocijdbc10 in java.library.path'" i posted a seperate topic. http://www.cognoise.com/community/index.php/topic,9080.0.html
The answer is
ojdbc14.jar = Java Version 1.4
ojdbc5.jar = Java Version 1.5
ojdbc6.jar = Java Version 1.6
Still not sure about the ojdbc6_g.jar or ojdbc5_g.jar...
any thoughts anyone?

Google is your friend here: ojdbc5_g.jar="Same as ojdbc5.jar, except that classes were compiled with "javac -g" and contain tracing code."
Doh! thank you very much.
