ORA-01882: timezone region not found

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello,

Is it any possibility to specify a parameter value to java command line
behind the JDBC River?
I think at a -Duser.timezone=Europe/Istanbul, for exemple.
When I try to create a JDBC River for an Oracle database (with jprante
plugin) I catch this error.

Thanks

This is ES related, but, what Oracle JDBC version is this and what Oracle
Database Server version?

Ups, I mean of course, this is not ES related ...

We have multiple Oracle installations, but we tested with 9i and 10g. My OS
is an OS X Mavericks, JDK is the last one (1.7). The only JDBC driver which
works with (JDK 1.7) is for Oracle 12c Release 1
(JDBC and UCP Downloads page).
As I noted, with 10g server there is no problem, but with 9i I catch the
error "timezone region not found". As a general rule, in production
environment is recommended to use the last JDK (or JRE) so 7 version
(Java Archive Downloads - Java SE 1.4).
Here we could found a warning about older versions:

"WARNING: These older versions of the JRE and JDK are provided to help
developers debug issues in older systems. They are not updated with the
latest security patches and are not recommended for use in production."

But what if our customs still use Oracle 9i? We are forced to use a JDK
version 4 (1.4)?

With an Oracle JDBC client jar of 11gR2 or later, you will receive timezone
issues when connecting to Oracle DB 9i. Check Oracle Metalink ID 1068063.1

I feel a bit odd to give Oracle support on ES community mailing list. Sorry
for the noise. You could also open an issue at
