Recognising a third-part driver for 'Ingres' database
835249Jul 15 2011 — edited Jul 18 2011Hi,
Great product, SQL Developer. I use it a lot, recommend it to everyone.
I am trying to connect to an 'Ingres' database. I have the JDBC driver jar file. I have gone to preferences -> Database -> Third party JDBC driver -> Add Entry. From here, the dialog files the driver jar file.
I clicked 'ok' at this point, but this does not allow me to create connections. I guess I need to point SQL dev at the actual java class file with the driver. (like 'com.oracle.JdbcDriver' etc)
So I used the 'Add Entry' dialogue to look inside the jar file. But this still does not recogise the driver classes.
The driver are connection details are ok, I can use it from other tools besides SQL Developer.
Any ideas appriciated!
Thanks,
JM
