Accessing MS Access Database 2010 from Sender JDBC in PI 7.3

[Former Member]

Hi All ,

We are trying to access a MS Access(2010) db file i.e test.accdb file from Sender JDBC Adapter .

We are placing the file in PI Local server

We are giving the path in connection(In Sender JDBC Adapter) as below

jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.accdb)};DBQ=//PIServerdetails/folder/PI/JDBC/test.accdb

But we are not able to access the file

We are getting the following error in channel

Error during database connection to the database URL 'jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.accdb)};DBQ=//PIServerdetails/folder/PI/JDBC/test.accdb 'using the JDBC driver 'sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver': 'com.sap.aii.adapter.jdbc.sql.DriverManagerException: Cannot establish connection with the registered driver. sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver returns: [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data source name not found, and no default driver specified. : SQLException: [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data source name not found, and no default driver specified'

Could any one please let us know how to proceed with the issue

Thanks

Swathi

Hi Swathi,

we have to install the correct version to establish connection to the database. so check the D.B version and download the drivers which is supported by that version..

Inform basis team, to look into that, pi developer is not responsible for that..
