Hi ALL

We are using SAP Business Objects 4.0 SP5 patch 3 and OS suse Linux 11.

Now we are having a requirement to connect to SAS . Could any one help us how to confiure SAS JDBC drivers on Linux server

inorder to connect to SAS.

When we are connecting to SAS through IDT we are getting the below error .

Error in IDT :

com.sap.connectivity.cs.java.drivers.DBDError:[Data Federator Driver] [Server][Connector
'testSource Connection

could not find driver class ‘com.sas.net.sharenet.ShareNetDriver’ using location

Thanks in advance

Not sure about SAS but for a JDBC driver for SQL Server you put the *.jar file in the following location,

/opt/sapboe/sap_bobj/enterprise_xi40/dataAccess/connectionServer/jdbc/drivers/sqlsrv2008

where /opt/sapboe is the installation location. It could be a similar location for SAS.

You’ll need to restart connection server before using.

hope that helps
