| The apple odbc managers, and libs, are based on iODBC, just like openlink. But apple seems to update so infrequently. So I keep up with the openlink ODBC SDK, which installs later versions of the iodbc libs, and the manager GUI, which is MUCH better than apples.
I also sometimes compile the latest iodbc libs, when openlink falls behind, but they usually stay up pretty close. But I was told by witango that iodbc 3.52.4 fixed several mac bugs, so I compiled those libs and install also.

Other drivers are still DOA. Now the openlink driver isn't free - it is an "evaluation" license. Their pricing is a bit confusing. Can't tell if I have to pay 99 or 499 to get back in business.....
thank you

Then try, also, there is a better version of iodbc, out, based on 3.52.4, that has some mac bug fixes. The only thing, you have to compile it yourself.
I am running 10.4.5, and I have the latest ODBC SDK/manager from openlinksw installed, based on 3.52.1, then I compiled the package from iodbc on top of it, which is based on 3.52.4. I did it this way, cuz openlink uses same libs, and I wanted to still use the openlink admin gui, cuz at my heart, I am still a mac geek, and appreciate a good gui.

Could be coincidence, but that looks like the culprit. The files still exist, but when I run the iODBC test command, I get:
1: SQLDriverConnect = [iODBC][Driver Manager]NSLinkModule() failed for dlopen() (0) SQLSTATE=00000 2: SQLDriverConnect = [iODBC][Driver Manager]Specified driver could not be loaded (0) SQLSTATE=IM003
Can someone give me a hand finding what it have to install to make this good again?
I may try copying files from backup - pre-security update as another strategy.
