I did everything right to set up the Teradata format in FME. I followed closely the documentation here: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters/teradata_jdbc_spatial/teradata_jdbc_spatial.htm. However, when I start FME, I'm still not able to use the Teradata format. What gives?

The latest JDBC download (Teradata JDBC Driver 16.20.00.13) from Teradata does not include the tdgssconfig.jar file that FME needs to run the Teradata format. This is a known issue and we are working to resolve this issue to not require both jar files (terajdbc4.jar and tdgssconfig.jar ) and is being tracked internally as FMEENGINE-62921.

Workarounds:

  • Use the previous version (16.10.00.07), which does include both JAR files needed.
    • Optionally, download the latest terajdbc4.jar and simply use the tdgssconfig.jar from a previous version.
  • Delete the file: TERADATA_JDBC_*.tcl from the following directory: <fmeinstall>/formatsinfo/dependencies/

UPDATE: This issue is now resolved, FME will no longer be checking for tdgssconfig.jar. The fix was ported to FME Desktop 2019.2 & FME Desktop 2020
