Issue/Introduction

Unable to create connection profile from DataMaker.  When creating a new connection profile and then select other option a new window appears in which there are no dropdown values appearing in the DBMS drop down which restricts from creating a new ODBC, DSN-Less ODBC etc connections.

Environment

All supported DataMaker versions.

Cause

Profile had no value input.

Resolution

Need to input a value for Profile before DBMS shows values in the dropdown.

Additional Information

NOTE: When selecting JDBC, only 2 options of Oracle DB show. To see Postgres or other databases, choose DSN-Less ODBC:

 

As a best practice please create connection profiles in Portal and that will show up in DataMaker as a DSN-Less ODBC
