for sqliteodbc which I built with the usual configure; make; make install.
Some progress has been made. The sticking point now is Base not seeing the
DSN or driver. Deleted the existing .odb and started over; here are the
steps and the results:
1. File -> New -> Base.
2. Connect to an existing database; choose ODBC from dropdown list. Next.
3. Set up connection to the ODBC database (which I thought established
the DSN): 'Browse' offers two choice: SQLite and the SQLite3 .db
file name. I select the latter. Next.
4. Ignore user authentification. Next.
5. Save and proceed: accept defaults of registering database and opening
the database for editing. Finish.
6. Assign an .odb filename and Save.
See this error message:
"The connection to the data source '<filename>' could not be established.
"[unixODBC][Driver Manager] Data source name not found, and no driver
specified."
I thought the DSN was specified in step 3, above. In /etc/unixodbc.ini is
[SQLITE3]
Description = SQLite3 ODBC Driver
Driver = /usr/local/lib/libsqlite3odbc.so
Setup = /usr/local/lib/libsqlite3odbc.so
Threading = 2
What am I doing incorrectly here?
