I have a new project I'm working on that connects to Sybase (I've been
working with Postgres lately...and haven't done a sybase wo project in
years).  I created a new model, I can connect to the database through Entity
Modeler in Eclipse just fine.  Whenever I ask for an "availableChannel" on
the EODatabaseContext I get this exception:


Mar 20 15:07:02 DataBuilder[2500] WARN  er.extensions.eof.ERXModelGroup  -
The EOModel 'erprototypes' has an empty connection dictionary.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Attempt to insert null object into an

SPEOUtilities.java:38)

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong here...I'm sure I'm missing something
obvious, although I can do the same thing with a Postgres project and not
get the error.  Of note, I don't think a plugin for sybase exists, so I'm
just using the JDBCPlugin.


Any thoughts would be appreciated.


Thanks,


Lon


P.S. -- Using WO 5.4.3 with Wonder nightly from a couple of weeks ago.
