Connecting to JChemManager

I am using Linux running Oracle 9i and JChem version 2.3pre1.





I had trouble connecting to the database using the JChemManager interface. The URL of the database needed the username and password entering before it would connect. So;


jdbc:oracle:thin@server20:1521:jct1





did not work, but;





jdbc:oracle:thin:jchem/jchem@server20:1521:jct1





did work. In previous versions I did not enter the username and password in the connection string and JChemManager connected successfully. Is this a bug, or is it intentional?

It seems you have left out a colon.





Instead of





jdbc:oracle:thin@server20:1521:jct1





please try





jdbc:oracle:thin:@server20:1521:jct1

That is what I was missing, your suggestion works.





Thank you for your help.
