Error configuring ODBC data source

Postby SebSpiers » Wed Feb 08, 2017 5:55 am

Hi Guys,

I am attempting to create a System DSN in ODBC using an existing driver (MSSQL) but I received this error:

Now I can create this manually in ODBC and I can test it fine, so I know there is no issue with the system, the driver, or the database.

This is my configuration in IA:

Can you offer any advice? Do I need to use the full path to the driver??
