Question

I have an old Java project which I need to rebuild from a Maven Ant task and which has a lot of dependencies. Unfortunately the support repository server does not exist any more and some of the files were not in the project’s code repository either so I have to look them up for myself.

Anyway, I have trouble finding a certain library, microsoft:sqlserver-jdbc:jar:1.1 as the log says. In other words, it should be a file called sqlserver-jdbc-1.1.jar or something similar.

Newer versions of it can be found easily but I am not sure if they will fit. Maybe someone can help me out here?

Thanks in advance!

If you may not adhere to the bugs of this old MS driver I’d recommend you to use JTDS driver.

    <dependency>
        <groupId>net.sourceforge.jtds</groupId>
        <artifactId>jtds</artifactId>
        <version>1.2.4</version>
    </dependency>
