Hello! I had such error when filling in and then saving the configuration for the database:

As I understand, ThingWorx swears at the "sun" in the JDBC Driver Class Name field:

Does this mean that I can't use such driver? Or is the problem in the title, or in something else? Prompt if someone came across this, please.

Hi.

 

It seems that it's impossible to access ODBC using this ODBC-JDBC driver (although in theory it should provide such an opportunity). In the end, I managed to achieve this with the help of ADO Service.

Hi @Mr_Henry_M.

 

Did you install a new extension before creating the database thing?  If so, try restarting Tomcat.  If that doesn't resolve the issue, please provide the logs located at \ThingworxStorage\logs and more information regarding the database thing you are creating.

 

Regards.

Thanks for the answer.

 

I attach today's logs, which somehow changed. With help of the created Thing I want to connect to an Access or Excel databases. As I understand it, they have the same driver.

 

 

Regards,

Henry.
