Description

When the exajloadx64.exe is executed on a Windows system, users encounter the following error message:

Could not find EXAjload installation directory!

Workaround

  1. Run the Jar File Directly: Instead of executing the exajloadx64.exe, you can run the jar file directly using the command line. The command structure is as follows:
  2. Revert to an Older JDBC Driver Version: You can switch to using Exasol JDBC Drivers that are prior to version 24.0.0. However, please note that this is not a recommended solution as older versions may not include the latest features and security patches.
C:\Program Files\Exasol\JDBC>java -jar C:\Program Files\Exasol\JDBC\exajload.jar -c localhost/XXXXXX:8563 -u XXXX -P YYYYYY -sql "..."

Fix

exajloadx64.exe works as expected.
