After Oct 2021 Patchset Update, JDBC datasources get "Could not establish connection .."
After applying the Oct 2021 Patchset Update, JDBC datasources (for Oracle as well as SQL Server target databases) that were defined and working earlier all get "Could not establish connection. No suitable driver found ..." e.g.
"No suitable driver found for jdbc:oracle:thin:@//<hostname>:1521/<ORACLE_SID>" "No suitable driver found for jdbc:weblogic:sqlserver://<hostname>\<SQL Server Instance>;DatabaseName=<SQL Server Database name>"
Steps to reproduce:
Login as weblogic to http://<BIPublisher hostname>:9502/xmlpserver
-> Administration -> JDBC Data Sources -> Create or test any connections to databases gives the error.
Prior to this patch set, all the JDBC datasources were working. (We have another environment where they are still working)
