[Wine] [Fwd: builtin odbc32 connection does not strip { } chars from client specified driver name]
Hi Hans, I thought you might find this interesting... Regards. -------- Message transf?r? -------- De: Adam Gibson <agibson@ptm.com> Sujet: builtin odbc32 connection does not strip { } chars from client specified driver name Date: Tue, 15 Nov 2005 10:04:23 -0500 Newsgroups: gmane.comp.emulators.wine.user I finally figured out why my ODBC connections would fail even though I was following the directions on every odbc32 wine help site that I could find. Some client apps specify the SQL connection string with { } chars surrounding the driver name. Windows strips those when matching an ODBC driver so the {SQL Server} driver name specified by the client would match SQL Server . Because I could not change the application I changed the odbcinst.ini and DSNs in odbc.ini to reference a driver called {SQL Server} and then the connection worked. If anyone knows the odbc32 code that sounds like it would be an easy thing to filter out when the client specifies { } chars inside a connection string. Put simpley... On a real Windows2000 system the connection string with {SQL Server} matches a driver called SQL Server . In wine it will not. ---- Failure driver is SQL Server, client requesting {SQL Server} ---- 0009:Call advapi32.RegQueryValueExA(00000080,7fcbeec0 "SQL Server",00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000) ret=4ca61cbc ... cut ... 0009:Call odbc32.SQLDriverConnect(7d2d1760,00010024,7e36163c "driver={SQL Server};server=10.1.1.1;database=somedatabase;uid=someuserid;pwd=somepassword;",0000004f,7fcbf53c "",000000ff,7fcbf6cc "<\x136~\x03",00000003) ret=236756c9 0009:Ret odbc32.SQLDriverConnect() retval=ffffffff ret=236756c9 0009:Call odbc32.SQLError(7d2cbe90,7d2d1760,00000000,7fcbf4f4 "",7fcbf508,7fcbf2a0 "",000001ff,7fcbf4ea) ret=23675188 0009:Ret odbc32.SQLError() retval=00000000 ret=23675188 0009:Call odbc32.SQLError(7d2cbe90,7d2d1760,00000000,7fcbf4f4 "IM002",7fcbf508,7fcbf2a0 "[unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data source name not found, and no default driver specified",000001ff,7fcbf4ea) ret=23675188 ---- END ---- ---- Success driver is {SQL Server}, client requesting {SQL Server} ---- 0009:Call advapi32.RegQueryValueExA(00000080,7fcbeec0 "{SQL Server}",00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000) ret=2150bcbc ... cut ... 0009:Call odbc32.SQLDriverConnect(7c74a770,00010024,7e36163c "driver={SQL Server};server=10.10.10.110;database=pa_lack_01;uid=sa;pwd=badguys;",0000004f,7fcbf53c "",000000ff,7fcbf6cc "<\x136~\x03",00000003) ret=236756c9 0009:Ret odbc32.SQLDriverConnect() retval=00000000 ret=236756c9 ---- END ---- The app still doesnt quite work yet but I am getting closer.
