unsupported (older) version

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, since I could not find a mailinglist, I am going to post this here.

When I try to convert a mdb that even mdbtools dosn't oepn (without error 
anyways), I get an:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

        at com.plausiblelabs.mdb.Main.main(Unknown Source)
        ... 6 more

Thfunny thing is that trying to test agains the latest jackaccess I get a 
slighlty different error, which tells me that the format is too old:

Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: Unsupported older version: 0

So that is where I am now. Mdbtools even if not opening the file, tells me it 
is a access 97 file (jet version). The file is way to large to attach it. 

Is there anything I could do in that case?

Thanks

I have had the same issue.  I have a file that claims to be in Access 95 
format.  Mdb-sqlite threw this error so I tried using Access to convert it to 
2007 format, which just turned the "0" to a "2" after "Unsupported version:"  
Does anyone have further information on this situation?  BTW, Access complained 
"The Microsoft Access database engine cannot find the input table or query 
'MSysAccessObjects'.  Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled 
correctly" at the end of the conversion process.  I have no idea what this 
means or whether it has any bearing on the Java error, but the new file was 
created nevertheless.  I repeated this process for two separate files and got 
identical behavior, although the original files were likely produced under 
similar conditions.

I have the same issue.
Can I give you any dump that could help you in figuring out which is the 
problem?
Regards,

I had the same error but it works now. I've updated the following .jar's:

jackcess-1.1.14 ---> jackcess-1.2.8
commons-lang-2.4 ---> commons-lang3-3.1
jarjar-1.0rc7 ---> jarjar-1.4

I updated my build.xml accordingly, cleaned the dist folder an rebuild the 
project. Et voila. :)

Ah, I nearly forgot it, I also changed the AccessExporter 
(Index.ColumnDescriptor ---> IndexData.ColumnDescriptor)
