So, my JDBC driver says this:

"SQL Server version 8 is not supported by this driver."

But what the heck is SQL Server version 8? All I can find references to are year numbers, and the guys who set up the database aren't around for me to ask. Any ideas?

    [First Google hit for "sql server version numbers".](http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321185) (And for "sql server version" but I tried that later and it might be Google's personalisation.) – millimoose Oct 11 '13 at 15:48
  • What the heck? I googled "sql server version 8" at the time and it was no help at all, but the results are great now. Maybe I was drunk... – mazz0 Jun 17 '15 at 20:11

Version 8 is SQL Server 2000.

Some more information here (thanks, dcaswell): SQL Server file names vs versions

SQL Server Version 8 is SQL Server 2000.

As SQL Server 2012 is 11, SQL Server 2008 is 10 And SQL Server 2005 is 9
