Status: Verified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.1x
SYMPTOM(s):
Error when attempting to configure the ODBC Datasource
MERANT 3.60 32-BIT PROGRESS SQL92 v9.1x ODBC driver could not be found. Please reinstall the driver.
Information about the ODBC driver is missing (version, file, etc) under the Datasource driver tab
The PGPRO915.dll driver dll is under the %DLC%\bin directory
CAUSE:
The user account installing Progress product (including the MERANT driver) couldn't create the registry entries related to the ODBC driver.
FIX:
Create manually the necessary registry entries under the ODBCINST.INI folder for the driver (regedit).
For example 9.1d of the necessary entries:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBCINST.INI\MERANT 3.60 32-BIT Progress SQL92 v9.1D]
"APILevel"="1"
"ConnectFunctions"="YYN"
"CPTimeout"="60"
"Driver"="u:\\91c\\bin\\PGPRO915.DLL"
"DriverODBCVer"="3.60"
"FileUsage"="0"
"Setup"="u:\\91c\\bin\\PGPRO915S.DLL"
"SQLLevel"="0"
"UsageCount"="1"
*where u:\91d is the Progress installation directory (%DLC%)
In addition to this, open the registry editor and locate the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBCINST.INI\ODBC Drivers
Add the string value:
MERANT 3.60 32-BIT Progress SQL92 v9.1D
with value data:
Installed
