I tried numerous times to add JTDS SQL driver (Jtds-0.7.1) following instruction in Adding a New Driver on Help. Driver Class, net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver, was found. However after click on "OK" there was no new driver added on Driver list on Databases. I have Windows 2000 and NetBease 3.6. Appreciate your help.
This is a known issue. Shutdown the IDE, delete <yourUserDir>\cache\folder-lookup.ser file and start the IDE. Look if the driver is visible under the Drivers node. If not, delete folder-lookup.ser again and delete also *.xml files from <yourUserDir>\system\Services\JDBCDrivers folder. Start the IDE and add the driver, hopefully it should work. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 38385 ***
