Pentaho database connection test button not working - pentaho

Whenever I try to make a database connection in transaction Pentaho, be it oracle or postgreSQL, although everything is correct in the last part, the test button does not show anything instead of saying the connection is complete. The necessary JDBC files are installed, can you help me?
enter image description here
I tried all the JDBC files, and I even prepared the file path for JDBCs, but nothing changed.

The test button doesn't work because you should download pentaho from https://www.hitachivantara.com/en-us/products/dataops-software/data-integration-analytics/pentaho-community-edition.html. Don't downloaded it from sourceforge, if you downloaded from here try the 8.3 version.
Tip:If the marketplace doesn't appear install pentaho 8.3 version.

SSMS 18.4 Crashes when we attempt to script entire database

We just started noticing this. It used to work, and now it doesn't. The crash happens on all of our computers. We right click on a database, select Script Database..., choose to script the entire database and SSMS crashes. No information in the Event Logs. We've found that if we script all tables, it works. If we also script all stored procedures and functions, it crashes. All of our databases are in Azure. Haven't tried local DBs. Any ideas how to troubleshoot?
Thank you,
Mike
It might be a bit late to answer but it might help someone;
I had the same issue recently, upgraded to the latest version 18.12.1 and it now works fine;
Check Download SSMS 18.12.1
Click on "Free Download for SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) 18.12.1"
and run the installed file "SSMS-Setup-ENU.exe" as an administrator and follow the wizard.

How to run Pentaho console on linux from localhost:port/pentaho?

I am trying to use pentaho which I downloaded from sourceforge (pentaho files). I run the schema-workbench shell correctly and a window opens with the interface, but I still haven't been able to connect to the admin console on http://localhost:8080/pentaho.
Any ideas on which this doesn't seem to work for me?
Best regards
You have a start-pentaho.sh which launches (after a long the first time) the pentaho server on port 8080.
That is, if you have downloaded the correct package, because Pentaho contains many packages: one is the server, another one is the client-tools which contains the schema-workbench as well as the pdi (Pentaho Data Integrator), and the prd (Pentaho Report Designer) as well as few others.
You are running the wrong file. To open the pentaho console, you need to download the PNTAHO SERVER and run 'start-pentaho.sh'
Pentaho by default will start PuC Pentaho USer Console on http://localhost:8080/pentaho once server is up and running. For getting the data integration i.e Spoon interface go to
For Windows : Pentaho install directory>> design-tools>> data-integration>>spoon.bat
For Linux/Mac:Pentaho install directory>> design-tools>> data-integration>>spoon.sh
I hope this helps.

Does anyone know how to troubleshoot a Worklight SQL adapter?

I'm a newbie to Worklight. I have imported module 6.1 from the developerWorks getting started with Worklight sample http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/mobile/worklight/getting-started/
I am getting the error in the error as configured in the javascript
"Can't get cities list. Check database connection"
Does anyone know how to troubleshoot? The connection parameters in "SQLAdapter.xml" are very straight forward.
For the Worklight MySQL adapter request to reach the MySQL database, you need to add the mysql-connector-java-5.1.23-bin.jar to your project.
You can download the MySQL Connector/J file via this URL: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/
Choose "platform Independent" in the dropdown, and click the Download button for the .zip option.
Uncompress the .zip file and copy the mysql-connector-java-5.1.23-bin.jar to yourProject\server\lib.
Got it working. Seems there was a problem with my Eclipse install, or Java on Windows. So I switched back to causing my Eclipse and Java installed on IOS and all is working. Also, the IBM documentation was unclear, but now that I am using mysql-connector-java-5.1.23-bin.jar in my Project\server\lib folder.

Prestashop 1.3.6 to 1.4.1

I have an eshop running PS 1.3.6 version. On my local I've updated to 1.4 first and then to 1.4.1...
Now I would like to update on server... is it possible to just upload files from my local 1.4.1, adjust the settings file and run the update script from 1.4.1 directly (without the middle step to 1.4)?
I can see there are database update scripts for each version, so it should be safe to do it like that, but I want to be sure before I run it on server.... thanks
I am usually doing the major upgrades this way:
Take a snapshot of the current site (tar.gz) & backup database using mysqldump tool (for compatibility);
Download all the files and setup the site on your local server machine using database dump (via mysql command) and downloaded snapshot. Adjust settings if necessary.
Perform an upgrade on your local site, thoroughly test it and test it again with your code & theme.
Repackage your updated files and database (tar.gz & mysqldump) and upload them to the server.
Erase the old site and untar upgraded site to its folder to take its place.
Replace old database with an upgraded one (using mysql command on the server).
Adjust settings if necessary. Test and run it! :)
That should be all. If you're more advanced you could optimize most of the steps. Give me a shout if you need all the useful commands to back up and restore files & DB.

unable to build ant with Clearcase on VMware

So here is the problem.
I have a local snapshot in my local windows system and i run my ant script and it builds.
I have build system which is also winxp but its a vmware built inside ubuntu. i have also a snapshot there too in winxp , and my script runs against this. But clearcase doesnt allow to write anything on this folder and build fails. Tried and tired of changing everything thats possible.
I did try one more option, like copying snapshot from my local windows system to vmware winxp and run it from there, and it works cool. Coz clearcase doesnt hold any lock. Unable to figure out how to fix this.
Any thoughts friends ?.
ClearCase shouldn't prevent the creation of private files in a snapshot view.
A snapshot view is like a SVN workspace: a collection if files copied on the hard-drive (as opposed to dynamic views which allows for network-access to the same elements)
So I suspect your script fails when it tries to checkout and/or "add to source control" elements.
I which case you need to make sure of the:
user characteristics (CLEARCASE_PRIMARY_GROUP)
view protect ("cleartool lsview -l -full -pro")
If you have those informations, plus any specific error message, you can add them to your question and leave a comment on this answer. I will then update it accordingly.
