Connection failure.You must change the database setting - Access DB

Hi All,
I am getting below mentioned error message by using below mentioned steps
Error " Connection failure.You must change the database setting"
Steps:
1. Click on Metadata
2. Right click on DB connections, then create connections
3. Enter name as MyAccessDatabase and hit Next button at the bottom
4. Selected Access from DB Type drop down list
5. Leave blank for Login and Password fields
6. Click on Browse button to select a file (Ex: D:/MSAccess/MySampleDatabase.accdb)
7. By doing this String of Connection becomes "jdbc Smiley Surpriseddbc Smiley Very Happyriver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=d:/msaccess/mysampledatabase.accdb"
8. Now when I hit Check button I got above mentioned error message.
Please let me know how should I proceed from here.
Thanks,
Jagmohan

First of all, did you checked your local ODBC setting in Windows it self. The ODBC bridge (that is what you actually use) depends on this.
I would try also using any other JDBC database tool (SQuirrel e.g.) if you can access the metadata with they connection.

I have the same problem.
The interesting thing is that I get error only when setting up a connection with Talend Data Quality (Version 5.2.2.r99271)
I have aslo installed Talend Data Integration and this seems to work fine
I am connecting to a local MySQL instance.
Please advice

Hi,
Could you please indicate the build version you're using? How did you get to the DB connection by Metadata or tMysqlxxx component in Talend DI?
Best regards
