I'm trying to config a connection with SQLBase with odbc driver on Windows and I never did that, but I'm getting the error:
Connection failed with SQL State: "HY092"
I'm using the Windows ODBC Administrator to try add the connection. In the field "Config Filename (INI)" of the configuration screen I put: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Centura\sql.ini" and I add "C:\Program Files (x86)\Centura\" to the PATH system variable.
In the application (.NET) I'm getting the message:
ERROR [HY092] [Gupta][ODBC Driver]Invalid attribute/option identifier
My sql.ini file has the content:
[win32client]
clientname=CWBXXX
[win32client.dll]
comdll=sqlws32
[win32client.
serverpath=server3,<SERVER_IP>,2155/<BASE_NAME>
Anyone could help me? Thank you.
Good to see you are using SQLBase . Awesome.
Two important settings to get right.
1) Make sure you are using the correct ODBC administrator
I'm guessing 32 bit in %systemdrive%\Windows\SysWoW64\odbcad32.exe.
If not , use the 64bit one in %systemdrive%\Windows\System32\odbcad32.exe.
Under System DSN tab Add the correct driver for the database. Either 'Centura SQLBase 3.6 32bit Driver' or the 'Gupta SQLBase 12.x' driver if you are running SQLBase 12.
Under the Configure Tab, specify the Data Source Name that you will use in your sql.ini. THEY MUST MATCH.
2)a. Make sure you only ever have 1 sql.ini on the client. Ever.
2)b. sql.ini needs the ODBC driver specified in the client section:
[win32client.dll]
comdll=sqlodb32
[odbcrtr]
odbctrace=off
longbuffer=32767
buffrow=10000
remotedbname=[dB Name specified in ODBC] ,
DSN=[Data Source Name specified in ODBC]
(without the square brackets eg. remotedbname=MyDatabase,DSN=MyDatasetName whatever names you have specified in ODBC admin.)

I'm attempting to set up an ODBC connection on an EC2 server on our companies network. Have been reading Snowflake documentation here.
Following the documentation, I used yum to download and install the driver by adding a file /etc/yum.repos.d/snowflake-odbc.repo and then populating it with:
[snowflake-odbc]
name=snowflake-odbc
baseurl=https://sfc-repo.snowflakecomputing.com/odbc/linux/2.22.1/
gpgkey=https://sfc-repo.snowflakecomputing.com/odbc/Snowkey-37C7086698CB005C-gpg
I then ran yum install snowflake-odbc
This appears to have added a connection to our existing /etc/odbc.ini file:
[snowflake]
Description=SnowflakeDB
Driver=SnowflakeDSIIDriver
Locale=en-US
SERVER=SF_ACCOUNT.snowflakecomputing.com
PORT=443
SSL=on
ACCOUNT=SF_ACCOUNT
Chancing my luck I tested this connection in it's current format but it doesn't work. Seems I need to locate some more info / name value pairs and I'm unsure where to get them:
Driver= wants a path to a .so file that I thought would have been installed with my steps outlined above. Not sure where to find this file or what path to use?
When I tested the connection the error I received said I was missing a UID.
The section of the documentation on dns entries has additional details of which settings can be added to odbc.ini, including an example
Driver = /usr/jsmith/snowflake_odbc/lib/libSnowflake.so
Description =
server = yz23456.us-east-1.snowflakecomputing.com
role = analyst
database = sales
warehouse = analysis
Does anyone know where can I find out which settings I need to add to get the odbc connection to work?
I am using windows 10. I successfully installed NotesSQL 9.0 but unable to add ODBC driver and getting the such a error:
The setup routines for the Lotus Notes SQL driver (*.nsf) ODBC driver could not be loaded due to system error code 126: The specified module could not be found. (C:\NotesSQL\nsqlc32.dll).
I checked the .dll and it is existing in the path that it showed. I did many different way of fixing this issues but could not fix it. Please anyone help to advise? Thank you.
Make sure you have added your notes.ini file to the PATH variable. This file is required by ODBC driver to run. By default your notes.ini should be in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\Lotus\Notes\notes.ini
After spending a lot hours trying to find out a solution, I discovered one that solves to me: add the path of your Notes client at your path environment (user and system path) and it will work fine! Tell us if its solves for you.
I'm having trouble connecting to a database with the ODBC.jl package. I can't tell if the problem is with my setup (more likely) or the package. The problem is that ODBC.jl can't seem to locate the correct ODBC driver.
> using ODBC
> ODBC.listdrivers()
/path/to/generic/odbc/
But I need to use a different driver than the one picked up from above.
I'm trying to use a custom connection string as follows:
>ODBC.DSN("DRIVER=path/to/driver/i/want;SERVER=myserver;USER=myuser;PASSWORD=mypass;DATABASE=somedb;")
which returns this:
[ODBC] IM002: [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data source name not found, and no default driver specified
ERROR: ODBC.ODBCError("ODBC.API.SQLDriverConnect(dbc,window_handle,conn_string,out_conn.ptr,BUFLEN,out_buff,driver_prompt) failed; return code: -1 => SQL_ERROR ")
My understanding is that I should be able to specify the driver as done above, but this does not give the desired connection.
I have .odbc.ini and .odbcinist.ini files set-up in my home directory, which I believe are working correctly. I'm on a Suse enterprise distro. When connecting via isql i have no problems.
Any help is appreciated.
I do not have the permission to edit the system-wide odbc.ini file, therefore I am searching for alternative ways to specify connection parameters towards Vertica.
I have unpacked the needed libraries to a certain location, and am attempting to create a connection string from my "custom" config file.
Is it possible to explicitly specify the path to the driver (and any other necessary parameters) when using pyodbc.connect?
Example intention (fails with the error below):
conn = pyodbc.connect("DRIVER=path/to/libverticaodbc.so;...")
Error:
pyodbc.Error: ('IM002', '[IM002] [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data source name not found, and no default driver specified (0) (SQLDriverConnect)')
Alternatively, is there another option to use odbc.ini files other than the ones at /etc/, e.g. through setting an environment variable?
I recommend to avoid the use of ODBC driver to connect to Vertica .
Vertica release native driver for python , see attach full details and examples :
https://github.com/uber/vertica-python
I hope you will find it us-full
Thanks
You can put a file called .odbc.ini in your home directory which will be for user specific ODBC settings.

I'm trying to set up dsn with qt and i cant get it to work. The dsn does work with isql.
I'm using ubuntu 12.04
POSTGRES is the dsn.
connection line:
QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QPSQL");
db.setHostName("localhost");
db.setDatabaseName("POSTGRES");
error:
FATAL: database "POSTGRES" does not exist.
I don't understand why qt doesn't do the look up to find the database behind. i made symlink (usr/local/etc) to odbc.ini and have odbcinst.ini aswell sqli does work with POSTGRES dsn.
Perhaps where will qt look for these files? Googled for 3 days now without success
I kind of gave up cant solve this thank you for any help.
I believe your problem is that you're using the wrong driver. According to the Qt documentation, you need to be using the ODBC driver for DSN files to work - for example:
db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QODBC");
Also note that, again according to the Qt documentation, if you're trying to pass a DSN filename to setDatabaseName, then it MUST have a ".dsn" file extension:
For the QODBC driver, the name can either be a DSN, a DSN filename (in which case the file must have a .dsn extension), or a connection string.
And, finally, it must be listed in your odbc.ini.
