Hello am having an small issue with my ODBC when i create user DNS it says on platform 32/64 bit instead of just 64 bit. I tired looking online and i still don't know what to do all my properties are correct? Also I don't get this issue when i try to Create a system DNS.
"32/64-bit" in the "Platform" column indicates that the ODBC Administrator believes that both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the ODBC driver are available to that User DSN. User DSNs are common to both 64-bit and 32-bit applications.
The "Platform" column does not appear in the "System DSN" tab because System DSNs are maintained separately via filesystem/registry virtualization in the 32-bit subsystem for 64-bit Windows (SysWOW64). The 64-bit ODBC Administrator (System32\odbcad32.exe) will only show 64-bit System DSNs, while the 32-bit ODBC Administrator (SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe) will only show 32-bit System DSNs.

I have managed this in the past on two separate machines. Now one machine has lost the DSNs and I cannot for the life of me add them back.
Uninstalled all MariaDB exes and MariaDB ODBC drivers.
Installed latest MariDB 10.5 and latest 32-bit MariaDB ODBC 3.1 drivers 3.1.9 (26/6/20)
Using ODBCad64 I am informed I am not administrator when I am (but this is not a huge problem, and other answers point to Office causing this).
I want to use 32bit drivers with VFP9 anyway, so usually run ODBCad32.exe as administrator, go to System DSNs and Add...
I can add any of the listed drivers except the MariaDB ODBC 3.1 Driver, which just shows a thinking-about-it cursor for a few seconds, then nothing, rather than the dialogue to choose the data source.
This behaviour occurs on User DSNs as well. On a separate Win10 machine I correctly get the next dialogue "Create a new Data Source to MariaDB" wizard, which I have had in the past on the problem machine. The problem machine will be the production database server, and has worked perfectly in the past, before losing the DSNs.
The other machine is development and bizarrely can still connect to the production machine, even though I uninstalled and reinstalled everything there and haven't setup DSNs there, and cannot see any existing ones. The development machine connects to MariaDB 10.05 (correct, just installed that on the production machine 10 minutes ago) using DRIVER={MariaDB ODBC 3.1 Driver};TCPIP=1;SERVER=;UID=root;PWD=*******;PORT=4306 (there is an existing service on 3306).
So the Driver appears to be working remotely, but I cannot add DSNs to use ODBC locally. What I can do is (locally) send the complete SQL connection string from VFP i.e. a DSN-less connection.
Any ideas much appreciated!
System specs: 64-bit OS (Win7), 64-bit R (3.3.3), 32-bit MS Access (2016).
I have data in a 32-bit .accdb file and I want to read it into R. I tried this:
con <- odbc::dbConnect(odbc::odbc(),
dsn="MS Access Database")
but saw the following error:
Error: nanodbc/nanodbc.cpp:950: IM014: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager]
The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application
Web search indicated that the bit difference between R and the database is the culprit. The default ODBC manager in Windows doesn't include drivers for MS Access (or rather, it seems to, but attempting to manage them using that tool gives you an architecture error). Following other advice, I used the ODBC manager for 32-bit programs (c:\windows\sysWOW64\odbcad32.exe) to create a new DSN with a new name for MS Access files, and then called this DSN:
con <- odbc::dbConnect(odbc::odbc(),
dsn="MSAccess32")
I got the same error, however, and suspect there is something I don't understand about what this error means. Is there a known workaround for the problem?
The access file itself knows nothing about bitness, its only about the client application and the bitness of the odbc driver:
If your R is 64 bit, you need the 64bit ODBC driver for access and therefore also use the odbc manager for 64bit, which is C:\Windows\System32\odbcad32.exe (in Win7 64bit).
While if your R is 32bit, you need the 32bit ODBC driver, located at C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe.
You can download the required Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=13255
So, download the 64 bit Access Database driver, create a 64bit DSN entry and you should be fine.
OS: Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise - 64-bit - En.Us
DBMS: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard - Windows - 64-bit - En.Us
ODBC Driver: Progress OpenEdge 10.2B - Windows - 32-bit - En.Us
I don't have the related ODBC Driver in 64-bit version.
Do I have options to connect, to the Progress Database, using Query, or Linked Server? If I have, what are my options?
Thank you all!!!
The Progress ODBC drivers can be downloaded from the Progress site. Log in with your ID on http://www.progress.com/esd/
Contact support if you can't find them.
There's also a product called "Pro2" replication that can "almost live" replicate from Progress to for instance SQL server if you have that demand. It might only be offered from 11.X and forward, I'm unsure about that.

If you were to download one of the 11x 64bit Client Access bundles, these will quite happily connect to a 32bit 10.2b database.

You do have options. Fundamentally, you can use our Multi-Tier ODBC Drivers for Progress (versions 6.x to 10.x) to connect a 64-Bit ODBC Compliant application to a 32-Bit Progress RDBMS. This 64-Bit client to 32-Bit server bridging is achieved as a result of the RDBMS-independent communications layer used by these drivers.
I have created an ODBC connection in PB10 Data Source and once I attempt to connect, below stop sign error occurs. Any idea on how to resolve this kind of connection error?
Error : ODBC Driver Manager The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application
Also, you could try to create the 32-bit ODBC in the 64-bit Operating System.
Here's the exe you need to execute to create 32-bit ODBC in a 64-bit Operating System.
c:\windows\syswow64\odbcad32.exe
Use odbcad32.exe under C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ to configure the DSN.
I suspect that you are on 64-bit system and that the DSN you try to connect to uses a 64-bit odbc driver. PowerBuilder applications are 32-bit and can only use 32-bit odbc drivers.
Hi i have an application developed on XP with Text ODBC drivers. But when i deployed on Win 7 with office 2007, i have connection issues.
<add key="SQLConnection.TextConnectionString" value="Driver={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)};Dbq=c:\Data\;Extensions=asc,csv,tab,txt;Persist Security Info=False" />
ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
i have googled every solutions like installing the following

Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable (32-bit)
2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components
after all of those, in my datasources(ODBC), it still only shows "SQL native client/SQL server/SQL server native client"
in the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe
i can see all the x32 drivers, but how can i modify my connection strings to access 32-bit Microsoft Text Drivers or are there any alternative solutions?
Thanks
I'm pretty sure it'll work automatically (even on a 64-bit machine) as long as the executing process is 32-bit.
Try recompiling to target x86 specifically.
You need the 64-bit Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=C06B8369-60DD-4B64-A44B-84B371EDE16D&displaylang=en
Then try
Microsoft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv)
for the driver name.
AFAIK, all 64-bit ODBC drivers from the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 64-bit Redistributable have slightly changed their driver names, I guess to differentiate them from their 32-bit counterparts.
I had this exact problem and the recompiling to target x86 specifically worked! Note that in order to do this I had to specify the Target CPU in the advanced compiler setting dialog - Project Menu> Properties> Compile tab> Advanced Compile Options button.
Before finding this forum entry I did install the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable (32-bit) but I don't know if that had any affect on this issue.
As mentioned above, when the executing process is 32-bit (in this case compiling against x86 makes the app 32-bit specific) the application will use the drivers from C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe.
Thanks Cameron.
We were doing this from ASP.Net and got it working on Windows 2012 just by moving the one site into a separate app pool that had "32-bit Enabled" turned on in the advanced settings for the App Pool.
A lot of people seem desperate here, I want to offer a few solutions. But, first I want to highlight what a dated proprietary trash idea from the 90s this is.
Use Unix ODBC to host the text file from Linux which the docs (seem to) claim to support an implementation of the Microsoft text driver
A better option would be of course to import the CSV into PostgreSQL.
I would suggest just doing this with \COPY and dropping the notion of a CSV.
You can maintain the CSV with PostgreSQL acting as a server with the Foreign Data Wrapper (file_fdw).
If you don't want to run an RDBMS, the modern way would be to use SQLite. This is a great idea if you don't need the server/client model.
The ODBC->text interface is especially insane, because ODBC doesn't define configuration beyond connection (so I assume there are lots of assumptions there).
