Thanks for the suggestion. I need to set this up for a student
computing lab with ~ 60 machines (we're finally getting rid of our
last PPC labs), but serendipitously VMWare recently made Fusion
available for use at my University free of charge, and we have a site
license for Vista and XP, so the incremental price for Windows is 0.
Sounds promising.
Much obliged!
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.
