The connector relies on the JDBC API. You can use any relational database as long as you have a JDBC driver for that database. The database connector download database.zip comes with several pre-installed drivers.<div style="background-color:#ffce7b">
[[Image:18px-Attention_niels_epting.svg.png]] '''Note:''' If you are installing or upgrading to frevvo v4.1.5, you MUST use the JDBC4 driver.
</div>

Warning

You MUST use a JDBC4 type driver.

The frevvo download package comes with several pre-installed drivers. Look in <frevvo-home>/tomcat/lib and you will see (among other jar files) the following pre-installed driver jar files:*

  • hsqldb-2.2.4.jar - HSQLDB driver

...

  • jtds-1.2.5.jar - SQL Server driver

...

  • postgresql-9.0-801.jdbc4.jar - Postgress driver

If you don't find what you need pre-installed you will need to locate a driver compatible to your database. Usually you can download your driver from the internet. Try one of these locations*

  • [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sqlserver/aa937724 SQL Server JDBC Driver]

...

  • [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/jdbc/jdbc-112010-090769.html Oracle]

  • [https://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21363866 DB2]

...

  • [http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/ Mysql]

Once you have the driver you need, copy it to <frevvo-home>/tomcat/lib.
