I've installed the Tableau desktop app and I need to make a connection using the Denodo JDBC by Denodo Technologies option.
No suitable driver installed, or the URL is incorrect Connector Class: denodo_jdbc, Version: 2.0.0 Download and install the drivers, and then connect. For support, contact Denodo Technologies.
I then go to the link to download and install the drivers, and download the jar file denodo-vdp-jdbcdriver-8.0-update-20240926.jar.
So then I try to run the jar file like this:
java -jar denodo-vdp-jdbcdriver-8.0-update-20240926.jar
and I get the following error:
no main manifest attribute, in denodo-vdp-jdbcdriver-8.0-update-20240926.jar
I did some Googling, and it looks like in order to run it using the java command I need to create a META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file and include it in the jar file.
I'm kind of wondering though if I may be off on the wrong track anyway though.
Is installing a jar file the same as running it - or am I heading down a rabbit hole?
Thanks much

That is, move the .jar file into the following directory:
Relaunch Tableau and connect using the Denodo JDBC connector.
