Hi, Did you try connect to drillbit URL directly?
see as: https://drill.apache.org/docs/using-the-jdbc-driver/#using-the-jdbc-url-format-for-a-direct-drillbit-connection or https://drill.apache.org/docs/using-jdbc-with-squirrel-on-windows/#entering-the-connection-url -- Miura, Masahide -----Original Message----- From: Timothy Findlay [mailto:timothyfind...@nbnco.com.au] Sent: Thursday, January 14, 2016 9:49 AM To: user@drill.apache.org Subject: JDBC Ignores URL ? Hi, I know this sounds crazy, but here is how I got the problem. - I downloaded Drill 1.4.0 and dropped it in a Centos VM (Virtualbox) - Configured Zookeep, Started Drill service (daemon) - Tested using SQLLine, all good. - Picked the drill-jdbc-all-1.4.0.jar from the JAR's folder - Started Squirrel as described. Added the driver, with the JAR, set the Driver name - Created an Alias and set the URL to jdbc:drill:zk=192.168.56.102:2181 - Trying to connect I get Caused by: oadd.org.apache.drill.exec.rpc.RpcException: CONNECTION : java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: no further information: localhost/127.0.0.1:31010 I've checked the VM, there's no firewall or anything stopping it. But if you look closely, where the heck is it getting port 31010 from ? and Drill is running on a VM, not localhost. What gives ? How can I put in configuration details and it seems to ignore them. Any hints/tips would be appreciated. Tim.
