I have configured Oracle VirtualBox with DB, user and populated a small DB. In the same machine I've installed Pentaho Data-Integration(Spoon), the JDBC driver and I'm trying to create a connection to Oracle DB but without success. This is where I'm typing the credentials/data:
Host Name: localhost
Database Name: (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=localhost)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=ORCL)))
Port Number: 1521
User Name: SYSTEM
Password: oracle

How can I configure it in order to connect Pentaho/Spoon to the Oracle DB? The oracle DB seems to be working fine, I've also tried with other users/databases that I created, but the result is the same.
