Overview

As of main25112, the SQL Server Snap Pack no longer supports the jTDS driver with Basic Authentication. If you are using 2014 and higher SQL Server driver versions, we recommend you use the driver bundled with the SQL Server Snap Pack (Microsoft JDBC Driver 12.2.0.jre11). Note that the older SQL Server versions are supported as is.

In this article, we provide a step-by-step guide for you to mitigate the impact to your pipelines.

• If you are ready to migrate now, follow the steps provided in this section.

• If you are not ready to migrate, switch to an older Snap Pack version.

Switch to an Older Snap Pack Version

If you need more time to migrate to a SQL Server JDBC driver, switch the SQL Snap Pack version to main23721 to continue to use the jTDS driver. Once you are ready to migrate follow the recommendation provided above.

To switch the SQL Snap Pack version to main23721:

1. Navigate to SnapLogic® Manager.

2. Click Snap Packs in the left navigation pane.
   You can view the Snap Packs and their versions.

3. On the Version dropdown list, select main23721 or a lower version.

4. Click Update to confirm the upgrade. Learn more about the Snap Pack Versions by Release.
