[Firebird-odbc-devel] 64-bit odbc on Server 2008 fails to connect

[Jerry S. <je...@ap...>]

Hi, I am failing to achieve an odbc connection using the 64-bit firebird
driver on windows server 2008. Can anyone understand why?

 

Settings>Control Panel>ODBC>System DNS Tab>Add
DataSourceName=SMSReminders
Driver=IscDbc
Description=SMSReminders
Database=D:\Program Files
(x86)\SpectraSoft\Appointments\UEALive\APPOINTMENTSPRO.GDB
Database Account=SYSDBA
Password=masterkey
[No other fields changed from defaults]

On clicking 'Test Connection' error message is produced: "Open database
'D:\program files
(x86)\SpectraSoft\Appointments\UEALive\APPOINTMENTSPRO.GDB' failed"

This happens irrespective of the location of the gdb file.

Firebird is running correctly and the gdb file can be accessed correctly by
e.g. IBConsole

 

Additional Info: 

1) when turning on the ODBC trace tool and testing the connection, the log
file does not contain any data.

2) When running procmon and testing the connection, no activity is visible

Thanks,

Jerry
