How do you know what SRID to use for a shp file?

Masu09-OracleSep 22 2017 — edited Sep 27 2017

I'm running on OBIEE 11.1.1.7 and MapViewer Ver11_1_1_7_3_B140717.

I want to display a Google Maps tile layer as background and then display an theme on it.

I am trying to put a Shapefile into database. I think this is because I am using the wrong SRID. The contents of the PRJ file are as follows:

GEOGCS["GCS_WGS_1984",DATUM["D_WGS_1984",SPHEROID["WGS_1984",6378137.0,298.257223563]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0],UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]]

How can I look up the SRID?

For reference, This is the warning when data imported using srid=4326 :

The shp file is from here :
