Connector

List of available connectors

Adding JDBC drivers

  1. Press the “Add new connector” button

  2. Choose driver type and select the driver’s JDBC JAR file to be used (some drivers like SAS support multi-file selection)

    MySql

  3. Click “Add new connector” button

  4. Click “Load connectors” button

  5. The application will restart and initialize added drivers/connectors

  6. Check that added connector status is OK Connector okay If the status check fails then please check that the correct driver file is uploaded.

  7. New connections can now be added using the selected driver.

Automatic driver loading from volume

Instead of uploading drivers through the UI, JDBC driver JAR files can be placed directly on the server's filesystem. On every application startup, SelectZero platform scans the drivers/ directory and automatically registers any drivers it finds.

Folder structure

Each driver must be placed in its own subfolder inside the drivers/ directory. The folder name must exactly match the connector type identifier from the table below.
