Description

When creating a new Teradata data source in Information Designer, you are unable to save the data source due to the following error: 

"Could not initialize class com.teradata.tdgss.jtdgss.TdgssManager (HRESULT: 80131500)"

The following error is seen when trying to save a Teradata data source in Information Designer: 
InformationModelException at Spotfire.Dxp.Forms:
Could not initialize class com.teradata.tdgss.jtdgss.TdgssManager (HRESULT: 80131500)

   at Spotfire.Dxp.Services.WebServiceBase`1.InvokeService[T](ServiceMethod`1 serviceMethod, ExceptionFactoryMethod exceptionFactoryMethod)

This error is caused by a missing Teradata driver .jar file.

Resolution

Once you have downloaded the Teradata drivers from the vendor, you will see "terajdbc4.jar", "tdgssconfig.jar" and readme.txt files in the extracted download. Copy both the "tdgssconfig.jar" and "terajdbc4.jar" files into the Spotfire Tomcat lib directory "[SpotifreInstallationdirecotry]\tomcat\lib" not just "terajdbc4.jar". If only "terajdbc4.jar" is copied, then the error described above will be seen.
