Hi,

I've been struggling a bit with a driver issue. I've been using Spring Roo for a long time with no problem but company policy has changed and I need to now integrate some work based on a ms sqlserver.
I've tried the opensource driver net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver to connect and it works up until I try a reverse engineer on the database giving an error (Member holding type details required)
But when I open a connection to my database using the official sqljdbc4.jar, no problem, everything seems legit.

So I tried using the official sqljdbc4.jar driver in roo to connect to the db and do the reverse engineering but I can't get it to work : I keep getting
Code:
addon search --requiresDescription "#jdbcdriver,driverclass:com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver" found no matches
JDBC driver not available for 'com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
my database configuration is :
Code:
#Updated at Tue Apr 10 13:22:31 CEST 2012
#Tue Apr 10 13:22:31 CEST 2012
database.password=pwd
database.url=jdbc\:sqlserver\://localhost\:1433/Tmp_***_Test
database.username=sa
database.driverClassName=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
I've added the driver as a maven dependency and to my local maven repo.

I'm using roo 1.1.5 release because I want to generate a vaadin application using the vaadin plugin.

I've been looking for direction for a few days and I can't seem to be going anywhere so I was wondering if you've experienced the same problems and if you have a solution...

Thanks a lot

Best regards from France
