How do I set up a SyBase Driver?

Post by Support_Duane »

The connection string that Sybase driver needs uses a non-standard format. Instead of using semi colons to separate the connection properties, Sybase uses Ampersands. Also, do not use “/databasename”, instead specify it using SERVICENAME connection property. So, try a connection string like below:

jdbc:sybase:Tds:myserver:1234?JCONNECT_VERSION=5&APPLICATIONNAME=GoAnywhere&SERVICENAME=mydatabase

If this does not work, you will have to contact your Database vendor.
