Hello, If you are specifying the URI for the driver jar, then you would generally put it outside of NiFi lib directory, somewhere else.
The URI also needs the file:/// prefix, so for windows I think it would be: file:///D:/some/path/to/driver/sqljdbc4.jar Let us know if that works. -Bryan On Tue, Mar 8, 2016 at 3:16 PM, Ashraf Mohammed <ashraf...@ihfinfotech.com> wrote: > Hi dev@Nifi, > > I am trying to connect Nifi to source SQL Server database.
