Unable to install DataDirect ODBC

Posted: Dec 9, 2014 3:55 PM

Hi everybody. I'm trying to install DataDirect ODBC for interbase 2009 on windows server 2008 R2 64 bits.

After installation, I open c:\windows\SysWow64\odbcad32.exe. I press the button to add a system DSN.
DataDirect is there, so I create a new system DSN. But when I test it, the system could not find c:\windows\system32\ivint21.dll

And there is no such DLL on c:\windows\system32.

How can I succesfully install DataDirect ODBC on such system?

Regards.
Damian.

The Data Direct ODBC driver is many years deprecated. I recommend you
install the one we make these days and see how it goes. The Data Direct
driver was made before a 64 bit world existed and it sounds like it
might be confused somehow. On a 64 bit OS, it should be looking for all
it's files in c::\window\syswow64. On a 32 bit OS, it would look for
them in c:\windows\system32.

The Data Direct driver is de-supported. I cannot help you with it. If
your requirements are such that you need it, you will need to contact
Data Direct and purchase it from them. However, as best as I see, they
don't sell it - so good luck. If our ODBC driver does not meet your
requirements, you might try Easysoft. It appears to me they still sell
it. I've heard they charge a lot, so be prepared.
