[Squirrel-sql-users] Sybase 12.5 ASE

[Paul W. <pau...@ne...>]

All,
I just sucessfully got Sybase 12.5 ASE to work with the Squirrel SQL 
client. I am going to post how I got the install to work properly:

I had Squirrel connecting to MySQL DBs fine, so it should work with my 
Sybase DB
I downloaded jconnect 45, pointed Squirrel to the correct location for 
the jar, made sure the correct class was listed under the 'Class Name', 
but it still did not work.

So I downloaded jconnect 55, pointed squirrel to the location of the 
jar, and it STILL did not work. At this point I did a bit of research on 
the Sybase site, and I saw that the class name on the Sybase site was 
different from the default class name in Squirrel. Once I changed the 
class name to the one listed on the Sybase site, I was able to connect 
to my Sybase ASE db sucesfully. The default class name in the Squirrel 
client was incorrect for jconnect 55. I still dont know why 45 would not 
work however.
