title: "Unable to locate JAR/zip" error for JDBC connections [BIRT Eclipse, Windows 7, Oracle 11g]
body: <p>As an FYI, I'm new to this entire stack, so I might be making a basic error.</p>
  
  <p>I'm attempting to explore BIRT reporting for a Maximo system that was recently upgraded.</p>
  
  <p>To do so, I installed the following: </p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Java 6 &amp; Java 7 JDKs</li>
  <li>BIRT version of Eclipse (Eclipse + BIRT plugins built in).</li>
  <li>Some Oracle 11gR2 client options (a custom install) 
  <ul>
  <li>SQL*Plus</li>
  <li>JDBC/ODBC drivers</li>
  <li>Thin Client</li>
  </ul></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I take the following steps:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Open Eclipse</li>
  <li>Create a new Reporting Project</li>
  <li>Add a Data Source</li>
  <li>Select "JDBC Data Source" (also tried "JDBC Database Connection for Query Builder")</li>
  <li>Select the "Oracle" connection profile type and click next.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>At this point, I see that the drivers list is empty. This strikes me as odd, but I figure maybe I have to define the driver definition. So I take the following steps:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Click "Define driver definition"</li>
  <li>In the Name/Type tab, select "Oracle Thin Driver", system version 11</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>At this point, I see an error message: <strong>Unable to locate JAR/zip in file system as specified by the driver definition: ojdbc14.jar</strong>. It seems that ojdbc14.jar doesn't even exist on my system that I can find.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried adding other jdbc jar files that I can find in the oracle client directory (i.e. from Oracle_Base\product\11.2.0\client_1\jdbc\lib) but nothing seems to resolve the issue.</p>
  
  <p>Help?</p>
