WSO2 Identity Server 5.0.0 / JDBC MSSQL

Question

I'm just getting started with WSO2 Identity Server 5.0.0 on Window Server 2008 R2.

I have a MSSQL database and I've followed the Admin Guide on how to set up the system with a MSSQL database instead of using the built in H2 database.

I'm getting stuck with JDBC. I've downloaded every possible JDBC driver (4.0, 4.1, 4.2 and even 6). I have JDK 1.7u80 installed. I tried all the different sqljdbc.jar files including sqljdbc4.jar. In all cases I'm getting an error message telling me that the driver is not compatible with JDK 1.7.

This is the WSO2 doc I was using to set up MSSQL database .

I also read the Microsoft JDBC website Microsoft JDBC Driver for SQL Server Support Matrix and at least one of the JAR files should have worked with 1.7 according to the documentation.

The WSO2 doc says JDK 1.8 is not supported so I haven't tried this.

Any ideas anyone?

Error:

Use the sqljdbc4.jar class library, which provides support for JDB C 4.0. java.sql.SQLException: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.7 is not support ed by this driver.

Answer 1

Based on the documentation you can find at the link below 4.0 supports Java 5 & 6. 4.1 Supports Java 5, 6 & 7. 4.2 Supports Java 5,6,7 & 8. So sqljdbc4.jar would not work for you if you are using 7, but the rest should. I am assuming you updated the driver name in your master-datasources.xml file? Are you able to share that file? We are using sqljdbc4_1.0.0.jar and JDK 1.7 with no issues.
