[mdb-dev] mdbtools over samba fs.

[inittab <in...@gm...>]

Hello, I'm attempting to access an access database via php with a
unixodbc connection.

if I copy the mdb database over to the local filesystem I have no
issues and can query the database fine. But if I try to access it over
my samba mounted directory I get the following error:

Can't alloc filename
Unable to locate database /mnt/netops/20101.mdb


/mnt/netops was mounted with the following command:
mount -t cifs -o username=XXXXXXXXX,password=XXXXXXXX
//10.2.1.XX/NetOps /mnt/netops

I can read files off of the share fine, and can copy the database off
but it seems unixodbc cannot access the file.

root@laptop:~# file /mnt/netops/20101.mdb
/mnt/netops/20101.mdb: Microsoft Access Database


/etc/odbc.ini:
[NetOps]
Description = Netops Database
Driver = MDBToolsODBC
Database = /mnt/netops/20101.mdb
Servername = localhost
UserName =
Password =
port = 5432

I am using the mdbtools driver:
[MDBToolsODBC]
Description = MDB Tools ODBC drivers
Driver = /usr/lib/libmdbodbc.so.0
Driver64 =
Setup =
Setup64 =
UsageCount = 1
CPTimeout =

Any help is appreciated.
