Sybase Odbc Driver Windows 7 64 Bit 14: Use the Self-Registering Feature to Create Registry Entries



There's some Microsoft Magic behind the scenes too. If both a 32-bit and a 64-bit version of an ODBC driver are registered with the same driver name (which is what SQLAnywhere does if you install both drivers), Microsoft treats them as equivalent except, of course, for bitness. That means, for example, you can create a 32-bit User DSN with the 32-bit odbcad32 then manage it with the 64-bit odbcad32. If only one bitness of driver is registered, you can only manage the DSN with the correct bitness of odbcad32. I recall that the installer team also noted that changing DSN information in the registry caused the OS to replicate the changes to other mystical areas in the registry and to reconcile the 32-bit & 64-bit versions of the registry. I remember watching it all happen in procmon and it was quite dizzying. It was problematic because the installer tool we used at the time monitored registry changes during a sample run then basically just replayed them for a real install. Of course, the install tool got very confused by the nonsense going on behind the scenes.


To determine which version of odbcad32 you are using, look for odbcad32.exe in the Processes list of taskmgr and see if it has a " *32" after odbcad32.exe indicating that it is a 32-bit executable. Alternatively, just try adding a DSN: if you see the Excel, Foxpro, DBase, etc drivers, then it is 32-bit.

Actually, it depends which odbcad32.exe you run. If you are a 32-bit process, you will launch the 32-bit one. If you are 64-bit process, you will launch the 64-bit one. Remember that for a 32-bit process, c:\windows\system32 9where the 64-bit stuff is normally kept) actually redirects to c:\windows\syswow64 (which is the 32-bit stuff). From a 64-bit process, you can reference c:\windows\syswow64 to invoke 32-bit executables. So, from a 64-bit shell, you can run odbcad32.exe to get the 64-bit driver manager or run c:\windows\syswow64\odbcad32 to get the 32-bit driver manager. From a 32-bit shell, you can only [easily] invoke the 32-bit driver manager because c:\windows\system32 is automatically redirected to c:\windows\syswow64.


Once you are sure you are launching the right odbcad32.exe and you still find that the ODBC drivers are not showing up for you, try reregistering them with "regsvr32 dbodbc9.dll". Remember to run the right (32-bit or 64-bit) regsvr32.exe just as you did for odbcad32.exe and point it at the right dbodbc9.dll.


The VFP ODBC Driver can be installed under 64-bit Windows but 64-bit applications cannot access VFP ODBC driver because it comes only in 32-bit version. For 32-bit applications under 64-bit Windows there's ODBC Data Source Administrator for the 32-bit ODBC drivers %systemdrive%\Windows\SysWoW64\odbcad32.exe (usually C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe).


pyodbc is a Python DB conformant module for ODBC databases. This tutorial shows how to use pyodbc with an ODBC driver, which you can download from this site. You can then connect Python on Linux and Unix to remote database such as Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, DB2, Microsoft Access, Sybase ASE and InterBase.


On Unix and Linux platforms, you need to download the pyodbc source distribution and build it against an ODBC driver manager. These instructions show how to build pyodbc against the unixODBC driver manager supplied with an Easysoft ODBC driver. We recommend that you use the driver manager distributed with the driver because this is the version of unixODBC that we test the driver with.


Note Some tests use data types and SQL syntax that are supported by SQL Server but not other databases. The test suite is most relevant to SQL Server therefore. The test suite does skip some tests based on data type information reported by the ODBC driver. However, some tests are still run even though the driver has reported that the prerequisite data type is not available. (To see which tests pyodbctest skips, include the -d option when running the tests.)


When we tested pyodbc, Easysoft ODBC drivers passed all tests that the target database was capable of passing. For example, when we ran the pyodbc test suite against Oracle Database XE, test_sqlserver_callproc failed because it uses SQL Server specific syntax to create and execute a stored procedure. If the test is modified to use SQL syntax that Oracle supports, the test succeeds. For example:


In the example session shown here, we used pyodbc with the SQL Server ODBC driver to connect Python to a SQL Server Express database. The driver can also be used to access other editions of SQL Server from Python (SQL Server 7.0, SQL Server 2000, SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2008, SQL Server 2012, SQL Server 2014, SQL Server 2016, SQL Server 2017 and SQL Server 2019).


When using the SQL Server ODBC driver/pyodbc 2.1.x to retrieve NCHAR, NVARCHAR or NTEXT data, we experienced data corruption. To work around this, we used pyodbc 2.0.58 instead of a 2.1.x build. (Please see Issue 13: Problem fetching NTEXT and NVARCHAR data.)


After you install the driver, append the following section to the /etc/odbcinst.ini file (if it's not already there), using the correct information for your environment. For example, make sure the driver is located in the path specified.


Note: The Zendesk driver is a JDBC driver so it doesn't require a odbc.ini file. 1. Click Download. The JDBC driver for Zendesk will download onto your computer.2. Unzip the file, and then copy it to the following directory.


The following commands can be used to confirm that unixODBC is installed, determine the location of the .odbc.ini file (if it exists), and to confirm the location of the SAP HANA client install that contains the ODBC driver.
