Install JDBC Drivers in Datical DB for Command Line Operations

For command line operations, typically for automation tools, Datical DB needs to have JDBC database drivers installed in "REPL" directory.

Ensure that "hammer" is in your PATH environment variable. Hammer is installed in <Datical_Install_Directory>\repl. For example, C:\Apps\DaticalDB\repl

To add this to your PATH environment variable, from command line, you would use: SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\Apps\DaticalDB\repl


Use this command to install drivers:

hammer installDrivers http://update.datical.com/latest/thirdparty


Check installed drivers as:

hammer checkdrivers
