How can I connect vertica with JDBC?

Question

I want to connect vertica with JDBC. But I got errors. Here is my code :

....

 Class.forName("com.vertica.jdbc.Driver");

....

 connection= DriverManager.getConnection
             (
             "jdbc:vertica://192.168.2.116:5433/schema", "dbadmin", "pass123"
             );

But I got this error(if I open the netbeans database section I got same error message. But I connect to vertica with client(Dbeaver)) :

ex = (java.sql.SQLException) java.sql.SQLException: [Vertica]No enum const class com.vertica.dsi.dataengine.utilities.MetadataSourceColumnTag.COLUMN_SİZE

How can I fix this?

Answer 1

i think it is because of your locale. in this case turkish i guess. COLUMN_SİZE has upper case i -> İ it is verticas fault to use toUpper digressivly.

Answer 2

So if you need jdbc client for vertica in netbeans or intellij use this vertica jdbc driver. It's the one that worked for me. (taken from dbvisuzlizer).

Answer 3

Vertica's connect string uses databasename, not schema name after the host:port. See the doc for details:

https://my.vertica.com/docs/CE/6.0.1/HTML/index.htm#1395.htm

Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:vertica://VerticaHost:portNumber/databaseName", "username", "password");

By default, users have a search path of "$user, public, v_catalog, v_monitor and v_internal", therefore, you can create and use a matching username to connect directly to the desired SCHEMA.

Answer 4

Its about 32 bit - 64 bit issue I think, because it is working on 32 bit windows I cant understand

Answer 5

make sure the connector (vertica-jdbc-xxxx.jar) is in the JDK\jre\lib\ext folder
