Windows Server + MS SQL Server 2014 + jTDS

Question

Hi, this is probably a pretty simple question that i dont seem to find details on how to do.

I have downloaded the jTDS 1.3.1 and now i would like to know how to install this driver and make Jira Core 7.4.2 detect in during the setup phase and make the test connetion succeed.

Have seen that i just drop some files in some folder, but not sure which files and where.

Anyone.. help. please

Its not supported by Atlassian, so either workarounds are necessary or wait until supported by Jira. I will wait. Voted up this is also possible right now

I don't know how a service user would be used to connect to an AD server, but it sounds like the AD server is not expecting that format of connection, or the credentials are wrong, or it's not configured to let that user in.

According to this documentation from Atlassian (7.4).

SQL Server 2014 needs the driver. https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver074/supported-platforms-881683157.html
