If you checked the Troubleshooting section but are still having difficulties, you will
need to create a log and send it to 1010data support.
Please make sure you have the most recent version of the JDBC driver installed on your
system before you contact support. You can find the version number you are using by running
the program
cdata.jdbc.c1010.jar in the directory
C:\Program
Files\Cdata\CData JDBC Driver for 1010data 2022\lib (Windows) or the directory
Applications/CData/CData JDBC Driver for 1010data 2022/lib (macOS).
Once in
the CData JDBC Driver for 1010data 2022 screen, click the
About tab, and you will see the version number of the JDBC
driver.
You can find out what the latest version of the driver is by checking the CData change log.
Make sure your version of Tableau is
2021.2 or later. The 1010data Tableau Connector and JDBC driver is not compatible with
earlier versions of Tableau. Select to check your version number.
To create a log file and contact 1010data support:
-
Run the program cdata.jdbc.c1010.jar in the directory
C:\Program Files\Cdata\CData JDBC Driver for 1010data 2022\lib
(Windows) or the directory Applications/CData/CData JDBC Driver for 1010data
2022/lib (macOS).
The
CData JDBC Driver for 1010data 2022 screen
appears.
-
Scroll down to the Logging section in the
Connection tab of the JDBC driver.
-
In the Logfile field, enter the path and name of your log file.
The user changing the JDBC driver configuration must have permission to write to this
file. For this example, we will name the log file
C:\logs\tableaulog.txt.
-
Under Max Log File Count, enter the maximum number of log files
to keep. When the limit is hit, a new log is created in the same folder with the date and
time appended to the end of the file name. The oldest log will be deleted. By default, the
Max Log File Count is "-1", or
unlimited.
-
Under Max Log File Size, enter the maximum size the log file can
be. When the limit is hit, a new log is created in the same folder with the date and time
appended to the end of the file name. (An old log may be deleted, depending on the
Max Log File Count value.) By default, the Max Log
File Size is 100MB.
-
Under Verbosity, enter the level of verbosity of the log file as
follows:
- A verbosity of 1 will log the query, the number of rows
returned by it, the start of execution and the time taken, and any errors.
- A verbosity of 2 will log everything included in verbosity 1,
cache queries, and additional information about the request, if applicable, such as
HTTP headers.
- A verbosity of 3 will additionally log the body of the
request and the response.
- A verbosity of 4 will additionally log transport-level
communication with the data source. This includes SSL negotiation.
- A verbosity of 5 will additionally log communication with the
data source and additional details that may be helpful in troubleshooting problems.
This includes interface commands.
The default Verbosity is 1. Remember that the higher the
verbosity, the slower the execution times.
Your
CData JDBC Driver for 1010data 2022 now looks

the connection. This information should be copied and pasted into the New
Connection dialog of Tableau.

options.
Note: The next time you sign in to 1010data by
CData, Tableau will remember the Connection
Properties you set.
