The following bug has been logged online:
Bug reference: 1793
Logged by: H. Schumacher
Email address: schumacher@abc-system.com
PostgreSQL version: psqlodbc
Operating system: Windows
Description: ODBC crashs without C:\
Details:
I have installed the following packages
psqlodbc-07_03_0200
psqlodbc-08_00_0101
against a Postgres 7.3 server and I could define a ODBC source, but than I
got only " Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 998
(PostgreSQL)" using it. Also I was not able to remove the ODBC source. After
several tests I found the following reason:
This Windows machine did not have a C:\ drive, because the original ME was
removed and WIN2000 was installed on D:\. But the ODBC needs a C:\ drive. I
mapped a network drive on C:\ and everything works fine.
I hope this helps to avoid others to do the same "research"
Best regards
