Re: [Iodbc-macosx] EL Capitan problems?

One more note... I just built the sources from Github and installed them: https://github.com/openlink/iODBC First thing I noticed that was a pleasant surprise is that the CONFIGURE and TEST buttons now work in the iODBC Administrator app *AND* when the GUI is invoked from an ODBC application. When I try to connect to the database from Excel 2011, it now prompts me for a username/password, which I don't think I ever saw before (but my memory is bad), but even for a SQLite3 database (through an ODBC connector). In Excel 2011 it works, no more crashing (at least in early testing.) When I try to connect to the database in Excel 2016 I also get the prompt for username and password (Yay!), and *NO CRASHES*, but it doesn't work for the SQLite3 database connector, it says connect failed. However, for my MySQL database (my main need, actually) it works! :) :) So, for Excel 2016, this may be pointing to an error in the SQLite3 connector, or that it can't handle a blank user/password, or something else... Unsure. The TEST button does work, but not a connection to the database. So hopefully this helps. Building was very easy, I only had to make a small change to the Makefile so it would build on my 10.11 system by adding a section copied from the one for 10.10, just changing 10.10 to 10.11 in all the lines. I will do more testing, but this is very encouraging. -Steve > On Feb 19, 2016, at 6:57 AM, Dmitry Pogorelov <dal...@gm...> wrote: > > Hi Steve and Patrick, > > I have the same problem related to Excel 2016 and sandbox: > Feb 19 13:22:38 localhost loginwindow[99]: -[SFLListManager(ServiceReplyProtocol) notifyChanges:toListWithIdentifier:] Notified of item changes to list with identifier com.apple.LSSharedFileList.RecentApplications > Feb 19 13:22:38 localhost sandboxd[127] ([57827]): Microsoft Excel(57827) deny file-read-data /usr/local/lib > Feb 19 13:22:38 localhost kernel[0]: warning: Microsoft Error (57836) performed out-of-band resume on pid 57827 > Feb 19 13:24:23 localhost loginwindow[99]: -[SFLListManager(ServiceReplyProtocol) notifyChanges:toListWithIdentifier:] Notified of item changes to list with identifier com.apple.LSSharedFileList.RecentApplications > Feb 19 13:24:23 localhost taskgated[151]: no application identifier provided, can't use provisioning profiles [pid=57852] > Feb 19 13:24:23 localhost taskgated[151]: no application identifier provided, can't use provisioning profiles [pid=57853] > Feb 19 13:24:24 localhost kernel[0]: IGAccelDevice: IOUserClient outputCount count mismatch > Feb 19 13:24:24 localhost Microsoft Excel[57852]: NSAllowAppKitWeakReferences=YES > Feb 19 13:24:43 localhost taskgated[151]: no application identifier provided, can't use provisioning profiles [pid=57861] > > though I've copied all libs to my local folder changing all dependencies via install_name_tool.
