IBM Cognos Analytics Developer V11 — Question 4

An administrator is operating in a hybrid operating systems environment, trying to establish a datasource connection. The compatible portion succeeds, however, the JDBC portion failed with following error: XQE-JDB-0004 A problem occurred finding the driver class
"com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver".
What is the possible cause for this error?

Answer options

• A. 32-bit client driver installed
• B. 64-bit client driver installed
• C. missing gateway URI configuration
• D. unsupported driver version installed

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the error indicates that the JDBC connection cannot find the driver class, which often means that the gateway URI configuration is incorrect or missing. The other options pertain to driver architecture or versions that do not directly address the problem of locating the driver class.
