Resolution
To resolve, make sure to have only one version of Denodo JDBC driver under tomcat\custom-ext ( Applicable for TSS 10.3 and higher) or tomcat\lib ( Applicable for 7.11) folder in Spotfire Server installation. Delete any duplicate versions of it and restart the Spotfire Server Service.
For clustered set up with more than one Spotfire server, follow above steps on all servers in sequence.
