Status: Unverified

FACT(s) (Environment):

ODBC DataServer
Progress 9.1D
Windows 2000

SYMPTOM(s):

Disconnected from server because database name was incorrect. (437)

Failed to connect to the ODBC database (6142).

The _probrkr broker is running through procontrol

Broker log displays the following error message:

BROKER could not fork a server process. (1156)

New 9.1D ODBC DataServer installation with custom installation

_odbsrv.exe is missing on the %DLC%\bin directory. Installation of the DataServer with COMPLETE option on top of previous custom installation did not place _odbsrv.exe in the %DLC%\bin directory.

After placing 9.1D00 _odbsrv.exe in %DLC%\bin directory, it worked fine

CAUSE:

Missing _obdsrv.exe from %DLC%\bin directory caused the problem.

FIX:

If custom installation was performed, uninstall the ODBC DataServer first before installing with complete option.

If _odbsrv.exe is still missing, the _odbsrv.exe can be copied from the same OS platform with Progress version 9.1D to the problem machine into the %DLC%/bin folder.
