Hi Angela, We recently upgrade from V9.1.1 to V9.3.1. One of the things we wanted to do is use the ojdbc8.jar instead of a ojdbc6.jar. Support told me some time back they were not supplying a signed jar anymore like the ojdbc6_signed.jar. With V9.3.? they changed from using the Client.jnlp file to using the RunClient.jar so the need for a signed jar is not needed.
We noticed when we tried to switch to using ojdbc8.jar it worked for starting the master, and remote agents. But then we tried to login using RunClient.jar. This worked when you typed a valid password, but when you typed an invalid password it hung, and we got the blue circle spinning. We then had to kill this in taskmgr. Also when you changed a user's password, they were not getting the change password prompt.
After a lot of back and forth with ticket support was able to pin this down for me. They requested I copy the ojdbc8.jar file into the AM_Cleint\jars directory on my PC. This fixed the problem. They told me this is fixed in V9.3.2.
It was an interesting upgrade going from V9.1.1 to V9.3.1. I learned a lot. The user_keystore files was at first difficult for me to figure out, but I finally got it working. A lot of confusion to the location .Appworx or Appworx without the dot. It needs to be in a C:\Users\<user name>\Appworx\<insance name> directory.. I had client debug on and spotted the error.
Hope it goes well, and everyone stays safe. This is very scary times.

Hi,
Just an update, I was able to get the upgrade done. I had to download a new ojdbc8.jar file to replace our older 6 version. It had to be copied to the ojdbc folder in the home directory and also copied to the web/classes directory. It also needs to be on each remote agent. There were some database upgrade tips that I found in the Installation guide for AM version 9.3.0 that helped as well.
Thanks.
Angela

Hi everyone, hope you are all doing well in this scary world right now.
Some time back I opened a case with support to ask about 12c/18c/19c. This was related to us upgrading to V9.3.1.
I am pretty sure support at the time told me 12c/18c are certified, but they were working on 19c certification.
We are using 12.2.0.1 databased right now. The DBA's have asked us to keep 18/19 in mind.
Be well, thank you
