Issue/Introduction
TIBCO Data Visualization (Composite) template not available while setting up a new Data Source through Information Designer.
Resolution
If this issue is seen, move the csjdbc.jar file from <Installation Directory>\tibco\tss\10.3.x\tomcat\lib to <Installation Directory>\tibco\tss\10.x.x\tomcat\custom-ext.
Note: In Spotfire 10 and higher, all the third party jar files that are not shipped out of the box with Spotfire must be placed in <Installation Directory>\tibco\tss\10.3.x\tomcat\custom-ext. During upgrade of Spotfire server, all the jar files under "custom-ext" folder in the current version will be copied over to the "custom-ext" in the upgraded version.
