Error when creating System DSN from OpenLink Informix ODBC Driver on 64-bit platform

  • I have recently deployed a SQL-2008 SSIS package that connects to an Informix datasource; the package is deployed on a 64-bit server (both SQL and O/S).

    Java plugin installed, version: jre-6u17-windows-i586-iftw-rv.exe

    OpenLink Informix ODBC Driver (Express Edition) [6.0] - Platform: Win64

    When I double-click on the OpenLink driver in the process of creating the system DSN I get the following error:

    Microsoft ODBC Admininstrator: odbcad32.exe - Unable to Locate Component

    The application has failed to start because jvm.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix the problem

    When I click OK on the error I get the following 2nd error:

    Couldn't load driver:

    C:\Program Files\OpenLink Software\UDA\bintl5eeinf.dll

    I click OK and get the final error:

    Unsupported type of OpenLink Lite ODBC driver

    Anyone know what the cause might be?

  • As the documentation states, the Express Edition driver you're working with depends on a functional Java installation, which you don't appear to have.

    I suggest you start with the pre-install and install/configure docs.

    If you have any further issues with components from OpenLink Software, I'd recommend posting your questions to the OpenLink discussion boards[/url] or opening a support case. Response will generally be faster and better informed, from the horse's mouth. 😉

    Be seeing you,

    Thank you for the info.

    I have opened a case with OpenLink on this, and, after adding the jvm.dll path to the PATH env variable the 1st error is gone; the other 2 errors are still there though.

    I'm working with them to correct the issue.
