CData JDBC Driver | java.lang.Exception: Could not find web browser-CodePudding

So I downloaded CData JDBC Driver for Redis from

I tried installing on my friend's system, running Windows, it was installed successfully, a pop-up with a list of web-browsers was opened redirecting to the Help Web Page.

I tried copy-pasting the folder installed on my friend's system, but it didn't work. I am getting the following error:

java.sql.SQLException: This system contains a license for CData JDBC Driver for Redis 2021 that has been installed but not activated.  You must run setup to activate the license on this system [code: I nodeid: 3TUTFKAF].

I also tried reinstalling Firefox, but it didn't help. Is there any workaround for this? Any help is appreciated.

CodePudding user response：

I was facing the same issue a while ago. Turns out CData drivers don't support Google Chrome for Linux Systems:

    public static void d(final String s) throws Exception {
        final String property = System.getProperty("os.name");
        if (property.startsWith("Mac OS")) {
            Runtime.getRuntime().exec("open "   s);
        }
        else if (property.startsWith("Windows")) {
            Runtime.getRuntime().exec("rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler "   s);
        }
        else {
            final String[] array = { "firefox", "opera", "konqueror", "epiphany", "mozilla", "netscape" };
            String s2 = null;
            for (int n = 0; n < array.length && s2 == null;   n) {
                if (Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[] { "which", array[n] }).waitFor() == 0) {
                    s2 = array[n];
                }
            }
            if (s2 == null) {
                throw new Exception("Could not find web browser");
            }
            Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[] { s2, s });
        }
    }

For the driver to be installed successfully, install Opera or another supported browser from the array using Ubuntu Software App.
