When the DBAdapter loads a driver, it introspects the driver class for specific internal interfaces—some of which may be marked as reserved (i.e., not meant for public or adapter use). Huawei’s JDBC driver (for GaussDB 100/200 or its RDS for MySQL/PG) is robust and high-performing. However, because it implements certain internal JDBC specs differently—or includes proprietary optimizations—the DBAdapter’s introspection logic may trip over methods or classes that it considers “reserved.”

If you’ve recently migrated a Java or enterprise application to a Huawei Cloud environment (or started using Huawei’s GaussDB), you might have stumbled upon a cryptic error message involving DBAdapter and a reserved interface .

Example with Spring Boot:

<strict-checking>false</strict-checking> Or set the system property:
