Anyone have any thoughts?
I'm getting the following error when trying to retrieve data of type
ntext:
java.sql.SQLException: ntext data cannot be sent to
clients using DB-Library(such as ISQL) or ODBC earlier than 3.7or
earlier.
I'm using SQL Server 7.0 on WindowsNT Server, and have compiled the
"freetds.jdbc.snapshot.zip" taken from the FreeTDS site that was dated
Aug 4/2000. The FreeTDS driver is being run on WindowsNT WorkStation. I
changed the following code in an attempt to solve the problem:
In Tds.java I changed the line:
private int tdsVer = Tds.TDS42;
to: private int tdsVer = Tds.TDS70;
In TdsComm.java I changed the same line.
In Tds.java I also changedin the logon() method: // tds
version
comm.appendByte((byte)4);
comm.appendByte((byte)2);
comm.appendByte((byte)0);
comm.appendByte((byte)0);
to: // tds version
comm.appendByte((byte)7);
comm.appendByte((byte)0);
comm.appendByte((byte)0);
comm.appendByte((byte)0);
and: // prog version
comm.appendByte((byte) 6); // Tell the server we can handle SQLServer
version 6
comm.appendByte((byte) 0); // Send zero to tell the server we can't
handle any other version
comm.appendByte((byte) 0);
comm.appendByte((byte) 0);
// prog version
comm.appendByte((byte) 7); // Tell the server we can handle SQLServer
version 6
comm.appendByte((byte) 0); // Send zero to tell the server we can't
handle any other version
comm.appendByte((byte) 0);
comm.appendByte((byte) 0);
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Cheers,
Stephanie
