Add Patched JAR Files to an Apache Phoenix Connector's Classpath

This applies to: Visual Data Discovery

If your Apache Phoenix/HBase servers use patched .jar files, you might need to add the patched .jar files to the Apache Connector's classpath. If you do not, Apache Phoenix may produce an error indicating that you have outdated .jar files.

Add the patched .jar files to the Apache Phoenix connector's classpath:

1. Add the patched .jar files to a directory that is accessible to the connector. For example:

   /usr/local/share/java/zoomdata/phoenix

2. Add or modify the following property in the /etc/zoomdata/edc-phoenix-4.7.properties file to specify the path to your .jar files as a comma-separated list in loader.path property. Be sure to put the path to your .jar files first so you do not corrupt entries already present in this property. For example:

   loader.path=/usr/local/share/java/zoomdata/phoenix,lib/edc-phoenix-4.7/phoenix-core-4.7.0-HBase-1.1.jar

   Note: In version 25.3 and earlier, use the path datasource.driver-config.jar-path. [review this content for v26.3]
