Re: [GENERAL] psqlODBC connection
Thanks Ray and Edson, I was able to finally connect. And the ODBCAD32.exe for 32 as well as 64 bit compatible was present in SYSWOW64 folder. This ODBCAD32.exe contained the PostgreSQL driver in DNS window. Thanks for all the inputs which helped me to figure out the driver and connection string.

Hi Mamatha, As Edson said upthread, you might have installed the 32-bit driver on 64-bit Windows, in which case you have to use the 32-bit ODBC manager.

I moved away from ASP a long time ago, so memory is rusty, but here goes:
(i) Go to the ODBC data sources manager (under Administrative tools on
my Windows 7 laptop)
(ii) Create a new data source, using the PostgreSQL ODBC driver.
As far as I know, it must be an "System DNS"...
Also, you shall not use 32 bit driver on 64bit OS. If you need to do
so, then you should use the ODBCADM.exe that can be found on
System/WOW64 folder (or something similar).
Good luck,
Edson.
(iii) In your ASP page, do something like:
dim conn
set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Open "DSN=your_data_source_name"
This is using classic ASP, mind you, not ASP.NET - the latter may be
different.
Ray.
