Database connection "CHECK" command button disabled

[dkul007]

I am using:

"Jaspersoft ETL Pro" Version: 4.1.2 Build id: r53616-20110106-0658 on

X86 laptop running Microsoft Windows XP Professional Ver 5.1.2600 SP3 Build 2600

I am using Jaspersoft ETL for the first time.

Steps followed:

I created a new project and am trying to create a database connection in Metadata to connect to a remote SQL Server 2008 DB.

I choose/enter:

Name: devSTAGE

Status: Development

<NEXT>

DB Type: Microsoft SQL Server

Login:  xyz

Password: abc

Server: [iP address of the server running the MS SQL 2008 database]

Port: 1433

Database: STAGE

CHECK command button is not enabled and clicking on FINISH also does not take me anywhere.

How can I fix this?

I had the same problem with this.

The core problem for me was down to running Jaspersoft from the incorrect executable.

I was using JETL-win32-wpf.exe as opposed to JETL-win32-x86.exe

On using the correct executable, the Check Box was available and working fine.
