Hi Peter, I have updated the actor to use the driver class com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver.
However, the MS SQL Server JDBC jars included in Kepler appear to be from "MS SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC", which does not support Java 1.5. I have removed these jars since Kepler requires Java 1.5. The license for "MS SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver 1.2" (which does support Java 1.5) does not permit redistribution. You will need to download the jars and place them in $KEPLER/lib/jar/. The Kepler loader will automatically add them to the classpath. If you are using Eclipse, you might need to add them to the .classpath file. Let me know if you have questions, --dan Peter.Fitch at csiro.au wrote: > Hi Kepler users, > > I have found a problem with using the open database connector actor with MS > SQL Server.
