I found it, I have no idea why, but in the older UDA 5.2 version of the manager, the user DSNs were stored in ~/library/odbc/odbc.ini , however, with the latest manager, UDA 6.0 from openlink, user dsns are being stored in ~/.odbc.ini which is hidden, cuz of the dot at begin. I have no idea why they did this, but the new UDA 6 openlink manager is the latest from iODBC, and is universal binary. The trick to using it, is to download one of their demos, and doing a custom install, and NOT installing the driver, just the manager. As far as I know, the framework and iodbc libs are not hindered at all, just the driver, then you can use the myodbc driver.

So, other than the new location for the user dsns, the instructions from witango support should be fine, the system dsns are still stored in /library/odbc/odbc.ini

I have their manager. All my DSNs failed after upgrading to OS 10.4.6 and I couldn't find a way to make them live again. That's what I'm trying to do. I installed the MyODBC driver - latest version, but can't get the driver configured in either ODBC manager. Have no idea what to put in the setup config.

You don't need to buy openlink, you can use the SDK, and use their manager, and use the myodbc 3.5.1 directly from mysql. Also, openlink limits you to one connection, with their driver, but not with other installed drivers. So just use their manager, but not the driver.

When I updated my OS to 10.4.6 on my workstation, my ODBC died dead. I couldn't figure out how to revive it, so purchased an openlink driver for $100, which installed and worked. The openlink only allows one connection to one database. For more, the price goes through the roof. So, I'm back trying to figure out how to reinstall the myODBC driver so that it works.

The official installer works fine, and the instructions show how to create DSNs, but NOT how to configure the driver. I haven't a clue how to do this. What to put in the "driver" and "setup" fields in the ODBC configuration.______________________________________________________ __________________
