Hi, Is it possible to use 2 versions of the odbc driver simultaneously on the same windows machine? Since the windows installer does not allow this, I copied the installation folder from another machine and register the driver using the following command: odbcconf /A {INSTALLDRIVER "MonetDB ODBC Driver Old|driver=C:\Program Files\MonetDB\MonetDB ODBC Driver Old\lib\MonetODBC.dll|Setup=C:\Program Files\MonetDB\MonetDB ODBC Driver Old\lib\MonetODBCs.dll|APILevel=1|ConnectFunctions=YYY|DriverODBCVer=03.52|SQLLevel=3"} In the registry and the ODBC datasources the driver "MonetDB ODBC Driver Old" is registered correctly, but when I try to create a DSN for the new driver I am getting Error "Invalid Driver name". Does the Monetdb odbc driver need to have the exact name "MonetDB ODBC Driver"? Thanks.
Hi, We do not support multiple versions of the MonetDB ODBC driver on MS Windows. You can only install one version. At installation it will detect first if an older version is already installed and remove it first before the newer version is installed. This process is standard on MS windows. You can view the installed ODBC driver version via the Drivers tab of the ODBC Data Source Administrator. This program (odbcad32.exe) can be started from a commandline or via the Control Panel. We advise to always use the latest available MonetDB ODBC driver version. Newer MonetDB ODBC driver versions will also work with older supported MonetDB server versions. See for latest available MonetDB ODBC driver: https://www.monetdb.org/downloads/Windows/Latest/ If there is any problem with the latest (11.43.15.01) MonetDB ODBC driver we would like to know it. This should be done by creating a new issue report at: https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues Regards, Martin On 22-06-2022 11:03, imad hajj chahine wrote:
