Greetings. I've a need to run Witango Dev Studio and App Server on
Apple Intel hardware booting system 10.4.11. I gather the Development
Studio can't talk to the Java VM on intel hardware because it (Dev
Studio) runs in the Rosetta environment, so JDBC is out. But although
I can see a MySQL dsn that ODBC Administrator claims works (via the
MyODBC Test button), when I try to use that dsn from Dev Studio it
fails with the msg
Unable to connect to the data source ...
Verify that the data source is properly configured and that the
database server is online
I've also been unable to connect to Sybase Anywhere 10.0.1 either,
though there the error message informs me that libodbc.dylib can't be
loaded, which doesn't surprise me as there is no file by that name on
my machine. (Though I do wonder why, given that I'm doing this on a
fresh system with Sybase newly installed, so I'd think all the
necessary files would be present...)
Before I pour more time into this, I'd be grateful if someone could
confirm for me that Witango Development Studio 5.5.08 *can* connect
via ODBC to *something* when running on Intel hardware and System
10.4.11 (or failing that, 10.5), preferably to any of MySQL 5.0,
Sybase Anywhere 10, or FileMaker 8/9.
The particular Intel hardware I'm developing on is a 3 GHz Mac Pro,
though the student lab environment I'm targeting is / will be equipped
with iMacs, and I'm using the lite version of Witango
Thanks.

PS - and is there any public time frame for the release of Witango
6? :-)
