For normal, that should work, as far as I know. But to be safe, place the drier into

<ireport-install>/ide10/modules/ext/

There are seeral othe possible library directories, but the aboe is the one where are mysql and postgres drivers are placed.

Do not forget to restart the IDE when copied the driver.

I added in the screen Services - Databases - Drivers a new driver (Firebird)

Then I selected Connect using ...

Now I have the JDBC Firebird SQL connection to my Database. I see all my tables.

But the problem is when I want to add a new datasource, I can't select the firebird driver... I copied to the folder you said, still no luck..

I can't use my Database in services tab, when I create a report..

Problem was solved:

Added the database like I said in previous post.

Then I created a new datasource/database --> netbeans database JDBC connection

Everything works now!

Hi, can you tell me where copy the jaybird-full-2.2.3.jar file for install and view the Firebird datasource type in iReport.
I do not know how to do it. I tried in various ways.

Thank you
