CFMX8 - Enterprise OR Standard to use DataDirect JDBC drivers?

[Guest]

Simple question here, I hope? I am migrating an application to CFMX8. This app connects to Informix. The best performance I've seen so far to do so is using DataDirect's JDBC driver. What I know is that DataDirect created a JDBC driver that ships with CFMX. What I don't know is why it seems CF somehow restricts access to that driver to Enterprise edition?!? Below are steps I have done.

Using tech note shown here I did install the updated Macromedia drivers and created a DSN to the Informix database, but upon trying to save the DSN details, an error appeared stating:

quote:

---

java.sql.SQLException: Use of Macromedia JDBC Drivers is restricted. Drivers can only be used with Macromedia server products. Please check that your license supports the requested driver.

This is pretty vague! Can anyone confirm that this is ONLY a Standard Ed. vs. Enterprise Ed. issue? Or is something else the matter?

The Macromedia drivers are not available in standard edition of ColdFusion. They are availbale in enterprise and developer edition of ColdFusion.
