Set up FileMaker DSN is Cold Fusion administrator

Question

I am trying to set up a dsn to filemaker pro 11 database in the cf administrator.
I am at the Datasources > Other screen
and there are questions there that I know I dont have answered correctly.
Here is the error message I get.
"No suitable driver available for xxxx, please check the driver setting in resources file, error"
I am using CF9.
I have already successsfully setup the dsn in the 32bit ODBC Data Source administrator  and successsfully connected to the Filemaker Server.
But to use it in CF pages I need to set it up inthe CF administrator, Right?

The way that Dreamweaver connects to a MySQL database is by creating a folder called _mmServerScripts in the root of your testing server. The folder doesn't show up in the Dreamweaver files panel because its name begins with an underscore.
Normally, if you want to connect to a remote MySQL database, you need to define the remote server as the testing server. Dreamweaver then uploads _mmServerScripts to the remote server and connects locally. This configuration was chosen because most hosting companies don't permit remote access to MySQL.
It sounds as though you are trying to connect a local testing server to a remote database. I suspect the problem is that the mysql.php script in _mmServerScripts is running with limited permissions, as is usual within Apache. Even though you're running Dreamweaver as administrator, Apache won't have the same permissions.
