Why has my Java application stopped working since I upgraded JDBC-ODBC Bridge?

When upgrading the Easysoft JDBC-ODBC Bridge, we recommended that you keep both client and server components at the same build version. Problems can occur if the JDBC-ODBC Bridge client (EJOB.jar) is not upgraded along with the server.

One error to watch out for is:

getConnection failed: java.sql.SQLException: Connection failed JDBC-ODBC Bridge exception: null

If this error happens after an upgrade, make sure the latest EJOB.jar is added to your CLASSPATH.

On Windows, EJOB.jar is located in:

drive:\Program Files\Easysoft\JDBC-ODBC Bridge\jars

On Linux and UNIX, EJOB.jar is located in:

installation_path/easysoft/job/jars

For example:

/usr/local/easysoft/job/jars
