Error description

  • If you specify an incorrect version of the JDBC driver once,
    this driver path is added to the runJavaMethod.bat or
    runJavaMethod.sh file. As a result, testing the database
    connection fails, which prevents a typical installation from
    continuing. You can't correct the JDBC driver because the
    incorrect JDBC driver path is already in the class path.
    
    If you specify the correct version of JDBC driver once, testing
    the database connection always succeeds even if you change the
    JDBC driver to an incorrect JDBC driver later because the
    correct JDBC driver path is already in the class path. In this
    case, a typical installation can continue, but it will fail at
    the end when creating the profile or deployment environment.
    
    If you don't have write permission to install the image folder,
    the typical installation fails because testing the database
    connection always fails. Testing the database connection always
    fails because Launchpad doesn't have permission to change the
    runJavaMethod.bat runJavaMethod.sh file to add JDBC driver to
    the class path.
