Access ODBC Driver not appearing in Create New Data Source List

When I run C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe  the Access driver is not showing up as an option. I'm running Windows 7 professional and Access 2013.  I'm guessing the driver is on my machine and is either not registered or the registry
has the wrong location. I have looked under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>ODBC>ODBCINST.INI and see no references to an Access driver in any subfolders.
I think I need the name of the driver .dll and where it needs to be registered to fix the problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Joe

Hi Joe,
According to your description, after you run C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe, Access driver is not displayed when you expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>ODBC>ODBCINST.INI node.
The issue is caused by wrong path of odbccad32, please make sure that you are using Administrator account or you have administrative privileges, then refer to the following steps:
Go to Control Panel.
Click Administrative Tools.
Right-click Data Sources(ODBC) to open Properties dialog box.
In Target text box, type  %windir%\syswow64\odbcad32.exe             
In Start in text box, type %windir%\syswow64, then click OK to  save the settings.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

  • Cannot create new Data Source - Oracle ODBC does not show in System DSN

    On Windows 7 x64, Installed Oracle 10g to use ODBC to connect to Oracle database but am not able to create new data source as Oracle ODBC does not show in System DSN.... only shows SQL server etc etc...

    If you installed 32-bit Database Client, try the 32-bit ODBC admin tool: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe
    Note that 10.2.0.5 is the earliest "10g" version supported on Win 7.
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/relnotes.102/b15680/toc.htm#BABEBBJF

    Please help.

    Hi,
    Did you use the generic installer or the win32 one ? You should use the former with Win64.
    You can also check that your version of Java is supported in the certification matrix.

  • Authorization Issue on creating New Data Source

    Hi Experts,
       We met several issues after we upgrade one of our BW system from 3.5 to BI 7.0.
       We have a customized role for our BW developer which name is SYN:BC_USER_FOR_BWDEVELOPER. When we assign this role to the users, the users should have access to create new data source, create/change on ODS,  infocube, infobjects,etc. The developers also need access transformation roles and BEX Web Templates.
       After we upgrade our BW system from 3.5 to BI7.0. All the access has been denied. Then I tried to added many authorization objects in the developer role, then the developer role can access all the data source except transformation rules.
      The following is the authorization objects which I have added:
    S_RS_BCS  
    S_RS_BITM
    S_RS_COMP
    S_RS_COMP1
    S_RS_CTT
    S_RS_ERPT
    S_RS_HIER
    S_RS_ICBE
    S_RS_IOBJ
    S_RS_IOMAD
    S_RS_ISET
    S_RS_ISOUR
    S_RS_ISRUM
    S_RS_THJT
    S_RS_TOOLS
    S_RS_UOM.
    S_RS_DS
    S_RS_ISNEW
    S_RS_DTP
    S_RS_TR
    S_RS_PC
    S_RS_OHDST
    S_RS_DAS
    S_RS_BTMP.
      I am not sure whether there are any other authorization objects or sth should be added to the developer role, could you give me some suggestions?
    Thanks,

    When i execute create transformation rules with the account which already have bw_all role, the system shows you have no authorization.
    The following is the error after i execute /nsu53:
    Authorization check failed.

  • Creating new Data Source Error - Database connection Failed

    Successfully installed and configured 11.1.1.3.0. Planning and Essbase dev.
    Went to Workspace > Administer > Classing Planning Administration > Manage Data Sources > Create Data Source.
    Entered all info about the application database , etc. Getting error "The database connection failed" (I was able to connect with no problem during the install)
    SQL server 2005 is on the same physical server.
    The diagnostic tool shows database connection passed for planning. A new database was created for the new application.
    The server event viewer shows these errors.
    "Login failed for user 'xxx-hyperion'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection."
    Group Policy Error "The client-side extension could not apply computer policy settings for 'Default Domain Policy {xxx}' because it failed with error code '0x80070003 The system cannot find the path specified.' See trace file for more details. "
    The Group Policy client-side extension Group Policy Services failed to execute. Please look for any errors reported earlier by that extension.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Datasource for the application.
    I have created a sql db for this planning application (my datasource). See my first message for more details.
    When you create a new planning application, you need to associate it with a data source. Since this is a new install, I don't have any data sources available yet.
    So, "To create, edit or delete data sources, click Manage Data Source."
    This page lets you validate your connection to the database and essbase server. My essbase server connection validates! The database connection does not validate after I enter all the relevant information.
    SCREEN INFO BELOW
    Fields displayed with an asterisk (*) are mandatory.
    Data Source Name *:
    Data Source Description:
    Select Database Platform
    Microsoft SQL Server
    Application Database
    Server * :
    Port * :
    Database *:
    User *:
    Password *:
    Click "Validate Database Connection"
    ERROR ---> Database connection failed.
    So it does not let me create a data source for my new planning application, so I cannot create a new planning application.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Created new data source, does not appear in the list

    Hi I created a new data source using information provided in http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/apis/pdstutorial/textPDS/PDS_1.html. But the new data source I created does not appear in the wizard. Could some body give me a clue? Can somebody point me to more detailed documentation on how to integrate a new data source into Reports Builder?
    thanks
    Srinivas

    Hi
    I desperately need help to troubleshoot why my data source is not appearing in the list eventhough I feel I have done things as per the tutorial. From reading the tutotial I am not clear -
    - If specifying an icon is mandatory. If I don't specify an icon my datasource should still appear right?..without an icon?
    - It is mandatory to implement the editor. I have hard coded things because I don't foresee any interaction by a user with the data source. There is just one column which WILL always appear if this DS is chosen.
    - Finally in the integration instructions(http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/apis/pdstutorial/textPDS/PDS_5.html) they mention that the classes have to be compiled with "report build" , is that a tool?
    thanks

    We traced the issue to a new data source that was added were we found that along with the the expected jndi name entry in the jdbc xml file, there were two blank entries:
    <jndi-name>weblogic.jdbc.DataSource.EOI</jndi-name>
    <jndi-name></jndi-name>
    <jndi-name></jndi-name>
    The data source was deleted, consoles restarted, the data source recreated and the issue occured again. To get by the issue we had to manually remove the blank tags from the xml file.
    We created 2 new data sources, and it only happened on the one. The same data source each time. Additionally, this issue did not occur when these changes were made in our lower (development, qa) regions.
    The version is the same in all three regions.

    Is this a known issue? And if so, is there a way to avoid it, other than to start constantly checking the newly created XML files?
    Thank you
    ted

    Yes, this is a common issue and documented in Oracle Docs:
    WebLogic Server: Getting "weblogic.common.ResourceException: is already bound" exception with JDBC JNDI name (Doc ID 1154250.1)
    The only fix is that you need to remove the empty value entries.
    Cheers!!

  • Problem creating new data sources

    hi -- I've just created a file DSN data source (Microsoft ODBC for Oracle Driver), and in Crystal, have used the ODBC (RDO) data source type, pointing to the file DSN. (I'm accessing an Oracle 10g database on a Unix server.)
    The connection to the database is successful, but when I use the Database Expert to pick the actual object (eg table) that I want the report to access, I get the following strange results:
    Not all schemas are visible
    For the schemas that are visible, only stored procedures are shown. No tables, views, or anything else.
    When I create an Oracle Server data source, all schemas and their objects are visible. The report works fine.
    Can someone explain to me why the File DSN is not showing me all schemas and objects?
    Thanks,
    Carol

    All -- Thanks for your suggestions. I probably should have given you more information up front:
    - I've already updated the database using Set Datasource Location.
    - I've already verified that the database explorer is including views and tables
    and is not restricting based on LIKE.
    - I did as Sourashree suggested and created a system DSN -- it also only shows
    me the stored procedures.
    I have successfully created a non-ODBC data source just using the Crystal Reports
    data source type of Oracle Server.  It works just fine -- tables, views, everything I need
    shows up in the explorer. So, my question about the File DSN is really just academic,
    out of curiousity (I struggled with it so long I'd like to know why it doesn't work!).
    If you can help me out, that would be great. But I see no reason the Oracle Server
    data source won't meet our needs.
    Thanks,
    Carol

  • Oracle ODBC driver not register in Windows

    I've tried to uninstall and re-install, again the oracle odbc is installed in my machine but never appear in the windows data source ODBC. Is there a way to made it appear in the windows manually?
    thanks

    Hi All,
            I am going thru the OSS note 1275837  (Note 1275837 - PrecServer: process based load distribution (ABAP part)), as it recommends
            add the entry "BWPREC_USE_NEW_LOAD" with value "X" in table "RSADMIN"
          When I check in SE11 and SE16 there is no option to create button for above entry in table RSADMIN.
          Please advise for any help to create above entry.
    Thanks

    Hi
    Goto SM30 - Table Maintanance Generator and enter the table name and click on button maintain ,it will show the error message
    "The maintenance dialog for RSADMIN is incomplete or not defined" because the table maintenance is not allowed manually.
    First Option
    When you double click the error message  a performance assistant screen will open in that you can see Procedure
    "Generate the required maintenance dialog" click on that and try to maintain the table using Access Key, as i dont have access key i have not tried this option.
    Second Option
    You can write an SE38 program with an insert statement.
    TABLES rsadmin.
    DATA: wa TYPE rsadmin.
    wa-object = 'object name'.
    wa-value = 'X'.
    INSERT into rsadmin values wa.
    Thanks
