When configuring 360Eyes database
When trying to create a 360Cast or 360WOFBO SQL source
When trying to create a 360View SQL Query
Once you selected your database type and validate the form, you fet "DB003: Suitable driver not found".
Environment
Product : 360Suite
Product Version : any
Database : any
Cause
360Suite uses JDBC drivers to connect any database. By default we only provide postgres JDBC driver. However we are compatible with a much broader set of DBMS (see PAM)
Resolution
If you need to access only one type of DBMS, you can auto configure the deployed JDBC driver at setup time:
Once the system prompt you from the JDBC driver path, enter the path to the jar file.

Please ensure the JDBC driver is compatible with java 8
Otherwise the procedure is :
- Stop 360Suite tomcat
- Copy your jarfile into {tomcat}/webapps/360.suite/WEB-INF/lib
- Start 360Suite tomcat
- Retry configuring the database
