Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Connect to Oracle via ODBC gives error sometimes
Hi Rick,
I have encountered similar problems here. Here are some notes I have on it:
After an application is installed, the user sometimes receives one or both of the error messages when attempting to administer ODBC from the Control Panel using ODBC Datasource Administrator.
The setup routines for the CA Oracle7 ODBC driver could not be loaded due to system error code 126.
Could not load the setup or translator library
These errors occur because the dll file for the ODBC driver cannot be
located. The registry entry
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ODBC\ODBCINST.ini\CA Oracle 7", points to the
location where the dll file is located. Usually, this file is at
C:\CA_APPSW\c3or708.dll
The solution is to have the registry entry point to the correct location. That means either changing the registry entry to point to the correct location, or moving the file to the location pointed to by the registry entry.
The ODBC driver for CA Oracle7 is c3or708.dll. It will likley be different for you.
HTH Sam.

Hi All,
I have installed Oracle client 8.1.6 on Win NT. I have setup an DSN and it
works fine testing with ODBC test and Universal Data Link Utility.
However if use Programs->Adiministrative Tools -> ODBC and choose my DSN, I
get "The setup routines for the Oracle ODBC driver 32 bit driver
could not be located. Reinstall driver". I have re-installed it 3 times
and still the same message. It must be installed or the other utilities
would not work.
The application needing to connect to Oracle bombs. Any ideas on how to
correct?
Thanks
Rick
