[resolved] Talend to Tableau Data Extract

[Anonymous]

Hi, I need help regarding a new component/palette creation,
I already made the palette for Tableau BI, but after running it, it gave me a connection or link error.
What may have cause the problem? And what should I do?
Please see the below image for your reference of the error occurred.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Here is a reference about Installing a custom component. Did you install the custom component as the article said?
In addition, the custom component tTableauExtractOutput is developed by community user. I think you'd better contact with the component author tfoldi.

Best regards
Sabrina

The problem is that Talend cannot access Tableau's native libraries. You can download it from Tableausoftware.com.
Extract the contents of the tableau extract API libraries \bin directory into Talend's root folder C:\TOS\TOS_DI-Win32-r99271-V5.2.2\ (so put dataextract.dll, tdeserver.exe etc. in the same directory where your TOS_DI-win-x86_64.exe is located).
Then copy Java\dataextract.jar Java\jna.jar files into C:\TOS\TOS_DI-Win32-r99271-V5.2.2\lib\java AND C:\TOS\TOS_DI-Win32-r99271-V5.2.2\plugins\org.talend.designer.components.localprovider_5.2.2.r99271\components\tTableauExtractOutput. That's the safest thing.
Please make sure that you run the same architecture for both TDE and Talend, like both are 32bit or both are 64bit.
Let me know if it works for you. If not, I can help you with some screen sharing, it would not take than 2-3 mins

HI,
I already did what you said, but running the talend gives me an error looking for 'log4j-1.2.15.jar'
then I downloaded 'log4j-1.2.15.jar' but where do i put it?
Thanks!

Hmm, this is something new, for me it does not required that jar file. Put in the same directories where you copied dataextract.jar

Okay now, I resolved the 'log4j-1.2.15.jar' issue..
Now, the error is 'com.talend cannot be resolved to a type'
what can be the cause?
thanks,
Lester
