I recently downloaded both software and run it against an Oracle database with this command:
# java -jar schemaSpy_3.1.1.jar -cp "D:\oraclexe\..\jdbc\lib\ojdbc14.jar"
-t ora -db [dbname] -s [schema] -u [user] -p [password] -cid -o output
I installed the latest Oracle Express Edition so that I get the latest Oracle client and JDBC driver. Make sure ORACLE_HOME is set, and include "GraphViz\bin" and "ORACLE_HOME\bin" in your PATH.
