Additional info:

• JDBC driver version 94280
• SAS version 9.4
• SAS is setup using AES 64-bit encryption
• JDBC URI format: "sasiom://<hostname_or_ip>:<port>?libref=<library_name>'/<library_location>'"

Can you please let us know what could be the issue here?

[gwootton]

Are there any other messages indicating the details of the exception being encountered? Does the behavior change if you use JDBC driver version 94290?

We are unable to test that our internally as our license has expired.

But we are seeking help on this since, we got to know from one of our customer that with AES encryption the above mentioned driver is not working.
