ODBC connection gives error.

[nuko]

Hello,

I've recently setup a Date Gateway server up (Direct Access on Windows Server) during a migration from Qlik Sense On-Prem to Qlik Cloud.

On-Prem, we used the 'OLE DB' connector which is not available on Qlik Cloud. Instead I'm using the ODBC connector in Qlik Cloud.

The connection string from the On-Prem connector shows the provider to be 'Provider=SQLOLEDB;'

Creating a new ODBC connection in Qlik Cloud with the 'ODBC driver' chosen in the 'Database properties':

I'm able to get configure the connector in Qlik Cloud such that it will say that the connection is succeeded.

When trying to use the connector (opening it from the Data Sources pane in the Load Editor) I get an error saying:

"Command collection returned non-success: The given key 'DatabaseTerm' was not present in the dictionary."

Creating a new ODBC connection in Qlik Cloud with the 'System DSN' chosen in the 'Database properties':

I've also tried with 'System DSN' but I still get the same error.

I followed the guide below:
https://help.qlik.com/en-US/cloud-services/Subsystems/ODBC_Connector_help/Content/Connectors_ODBC/OD...

In the program 'ODBC Data Sources' used in the guide above, I used the driver 'SQL Server' (see picture)

Again, I'm able to get a succeeded test in 'ODBC Data Sources':

'Test connection' succeeds, but I get the same error when I try to open the data connector from the side panel.

Hi @nuko 

This error happens when the database value is not set in the connection. For example, see below:

In addition to this, make sure that you are using the correct connection string AND ensure that you are using 64 bit ODBC and system dns (not user).

Hi,

I got the same issue but not the same settings.
My connection string is null and my database term is also null.
I cannot preview the data but I can laod with the data.

Should I write something in databse term field ?
