SQL Server 2005 Compatibility

Steps to Enable TLSv1 in Java

Follow these steps to enable TLS 1.0 by modifying the java.security file:

  1. Locate the java.security File

  • Find the file in your Java installation directory:

    • For Java 9 and later: $JAVA_HOME/conf/security/java.security

    • For DBSync Bundled JRE:

    "<WINDOWS-BUILD-INSTALLATION-FOLDER>/jre/conf/security/java.security

  1. Edit the File

  • Open the java. security file in a text editor with administrative or root permissions.

  1. Locate the jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms Property Look for a line similar to:

    jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1, RC4, DES, MD5withRSA, ...

  2. Enable TLS 1.0

    • Remove TLSv1 from the list of disabled algorithms. For example:

    Original:

    jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1, RC4, DES, MD5withRSA

    Modified:

jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, TLSv1.1, RC4, DES, MD5withRSA

  1. Save and Apply Changes

    • Save the modified file and restart your Java application or server to apply the changes.

Verification

After completing these steps, test the connectivity between your Java application and SQL Server 2005 to confirm that TLS 1.0 is functioning as expected.

Recommendation

This change should be treated as a temporary workaround. Plan to upgrade SQL Server 2005 to a supported version to align with modern security standards and avoid reliance on outdated protocols like TLS 1.0.
