Description

The latest version of oracle database needs a slash between the port and the sid of the jdbcUrl: jdbc:oracle:thin@//[hostname]:[port]/[DB service name]

resources:
https://www.oracle.com/dk/database/technologies/appdev/xe/quickstart.html (under java connection)
https://docs.oracle.com/database/121/JJDBC/urls.htm#BEIDHCBA

Also the SID should be configurable (in the same way as username/password is)

Trace how username and password are configured, then verify that the service name separator and configurable SID are reflected in the resulting connection URL.
