Re: [Firebird-test] [FB-Tracker] Commented: (ODBC-93) Error connecting to existing database using Windows Server 2008 R2 / 64 bit

[Sue A. <sa...@en...>]

No. 

The only "gd..." dll in c:\windows\system32 is gdi32.dll.

Should I try copying gds32.dll there? If so, where would it have installed to?

Thanks!
Sue

-------------------------------------------

Do you have 64-bit gds32.dll (fbclient.dll) in system32?
Unable to connect to data source: library 'gds32.dll' failed to load" - ODBC driver can not load (find) a client library.
