Can't connect to SQL Server even after adding sqljdbc4.jar in class path

[uzair_zaman]

This is the error message I get:

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.6 is not supported by this driver. Use the sqljdbc4.jar class library, which provides support for JDBC 4.0
 

I have added the sqljdbc4.jar in the classpath library but it's still giving me error when I click on Test to test the connection.

 

Please check the screenshot attached for further details.

 

Any help will be highly appriciated. Thanks

I have got it working myself. I have allowed 1433 port out of firewall of SQL Server and I think Jaspersoft server doesn't start automatially, as I was assuming which happens in the case of other softwares, so I have started the service of Jaspersoft Server from here: Start >> All Programs >> Jaspersoft server > Start or Stop >> Start

Hai there, hope this helping for anyone.

I just tried ireport to connect SQL server and it gives me error just like your question.
After tried several times and little frustating I just setup port 1433 on exception Firewall and pick UDP mode NOT TCP mode.

And its just work fine !
