Hi ESP experts,

i am new to ESP and have a simple question:

Whats do i have to do to use the HANA Output Adapter? I found this article here:

But it isn't working. If i am editing the services.xml and put in my connection details in "SampleHanaJDBC" and use the outut adapter, it says "schema discovery not supportet. Do i have to ask my basis team to do something?

Is there a another guide how to use it?

Hello,

Have you copied the HANA client JAR "ngdbc.jar" to %ESP_HOME%\libj ?  You have to obtain it separately in the HANA Client distribution.  For any JDBC connection, you have to get the targets JDBC driver and copy it to this directory.

Most people use the HANA ODBC driver (also available in the HANA Client distribution) to connect ESP to HANA.  Detailed instructions are here:

     SAP HANA Output Adapter

Once you install the HANA client, configure an ODBC DSN for your HANA database.  Do a "Test Connection" with the ODBC Administrator.  If this succeeds, you can use this DSN in your ESP "service.xml" and discovery should work.

Thanks,

  Neal
