We have a utility in Splunkbase called Splunk DB Connect.

Thx,

I get the following error when trying to add a db connection.

Encountered the following error while trying to save: In handler 'dbx-databases': Error connecting to database: java.sql.SQLException: I/O Error: SSO Failed: Native SSPI library not loaded. Check the java.library.path system property

We are assuming that you have done this:

The following are required before deploying Splunk DB Connect:

A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) Version 1.6 or above
    Do not use a hotspot (client mode only) JVM.

You will also need to set up JAVA_HOME as a global variable in your system.

Java Installation directory (JAVA_HOME): This must be the directory of your Java JRE (Runtime Environment). The default value will be retrieved by your JAVA_HOME environment variable (if set properly).
