[egenix-users] mx.ODBC.unixODBC: Datasource not found

[Georges Racinet]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to get mxODBC to work with unixODBC, and I get the  
following error
[iODBC] Datasource not found and not default driver (from memory, sorry)

Actually, as those also reading the unixODBC support mailing-list  
already know, my
unixODBC setup doesn't work so well, but it can initiate a  
connection, the odbc.ini and odbcinst.ini
are thus ok. This really looks as if those files were ignored in the  
mxODBC context.

I tried to duplicate my .ini files from to /etc/unixODBC/ to /etc/,  
with no effect.
Tried to play with ODBCINI env variable - same.

I'm a bit confused by the [iODBC] appearing in the error message. I  
imported
mx.ODBC.unixODBC and tried both  'connect' and 'DriverConnect'

Any help would be very appreciated, thank you very much !
Have a nice day.

PS: BTW this will be used in a Zope context. I suppose it's ok to  
validate that the connection works
with the pure python library and by the Zope encapsulated version  
licences, right ?
