The standard DTP distribution installation does not ship with the MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Oracle JDBC drivers necessary to set up a database connection. You will need to download the driver for your database software separately.
| MySQL | For MySQL databases (5.7.x - 8.0.x), it is recommended that you use the latest version (8.0.x) of MySQL Java Connector. |
|---|---|
| PostgreSQL | For PostgreSQL database, it is recommended that you use the latest version (42.x) of JDBC driver. |
| Oracle | For Oracle databases, you will need to download the JDBC driver version recommended for your version of Oracle that will work with DTP:
Refer to the Oracle documentation for information on choosing the correct driver: https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/faq-jdbc.html Oracle JDBC drivers can be downloaded from: https://www.oracle.com/pl/database/technologies/appdev/jdbc-downloads.html |
Place the drivers in the <DTP_DATA_DIR>/lib/thirdparty directory. By default, the <DTP_DATA_DIR> directory for Windows is installed in the C:\ProgramData\Parasoft\DTP directory. On Linux, the data directory is set during installation. See Installation Directories for details. For more information about supported databases, see Database Requirements.
