[PHP-DEV] Bug #13312 Updated: cant connect to a odbc source From: ahill <email protected>
Date: 09/15/01

ID: 13312
Updated by: ahill
Reported By: parabips <email protected>
Status: Open
Bug Type: ODBC related
Operating System: Windows2000 server
PHP Version: 4.0.6
New Comment:

This will occur on Windows if you try to use a File DSN
instead of a System DSN - and is expected behavior. Try a
System DSN.

For people searching the bug list, if you experience this
on linux/unix, this will occur if you don't pass the
location of your odbc.ini to your script with a
putenv("ODBCINI=/path/to/odbc.ini");

I tried to connect with a Microsoft Access database but it didnt work.

I made the DSN named reg and then I used the following code to connect

$connection=odbc_connect("reg","admin","") or die ("Cant connect the
datasource");
$sql="Select * from newuser order by name asc";
$sql_statement=odbc_prepare($connection,$sql) or die ("Cant prepare statement");
$sql_result=odbc_execute($sql_statement) or die ("Cant execute query");
odbc_result_all($sql_result,"border=1");
odbc_free-result($sql_result);
odbc_close($connection);

when i view the php page it says

Warning: SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found
and no default driver specified

can anyone solve my problem
