Hello Timo,

Bingo - your advice solved my problem, and I can now connect to OpenBase.

When I compared the 2 OpenBaseJDBC.jar files - sure enough the one in /Library/Java/Extensions had a earlier date (9/12/2006 and 73,373 bytes) VERSUS the file in /Applications/OpenBase/Developer/Interfaces/JDBC/JDBC_10.9.2006 (10/9/2006 date and 74,235 bytes). And using the latter enabled a connection to the database.

I'm can't be sure which update caused this problem (I did not keep a record), but I think it was an Xcode 2.4.1/WebObjects 5.3.2 update which I performed quite recently.

Thanks very much for your help!

Fred

Hi there,

had a similar issue last week. The symptoms were the same. Either some update (WO 533?) replaces the OpenBase driver with a outdated or broken one, or the last java update makes the old one useless. When I did a "System.out.println(ObDriver.class)" at application startup, I would get something like incorrect class version. In my case, replacing the jar in /Library/Java/Extensions with the jar from the latest OpenBase distribution fixed it.

Checked Spotlight and it is ONLY in /Library/Java/Extensions (and of course - /Application/OpenBase/Developer).

Also I looked further into the project Java Build Path and do see JRE System Library(JVM 1.4.2) which contains the item > OpenBaseJDBC.jar - /Library/Java/Extensions/. So the error text stating "Driver not found in Java Runtime!" does not make any sense to me. Because my model specifies a URL: jdbc:OpenBase which somehow instructs to use the above .jar file. And I was connected to this database last week.

So now I do not know what else to check!

Thanks for your help.

Use Spotlight to find OpenBaseJDBC.jar. You probably have it also in /Library/WebObjects/Extensions or some other inappropriate place. It should ONLY be in /Library/Java/Extensions

Hello All,

I am unable to connect to a localhost OpenBase database that I had previously connected to last week. The console error is:

An exception occurred while trying to open a
channel:com.webobjects.jdbcadaptor.JDBCAdaptorException: JDBC connection failed for driver :'com.openbase.jdbc.ObDriver'. Driver not found in Java Runtime! Please verify your CLASSPATH environment variable. The current CLASSPATH for your application is :/System/....

Since I did NOT see OpenBaseJDBC.jar in any of these search paths, I tried to add a new classpath variable pointing to /Library/Java/Extensions/OpenBaseJDBC.jar, but when I try to add it to the project Java Build Path, it complained that it was a duplicate entry (and would not let me save it). So now I am totally confused!

I have checked my connection dictionary/params (they are correct), and the database is started/running.

Can anyone suggest what may be the problem?

Thank You
