Problem setting up ODBC for Firebird 2.5

[tomovangel]

Hello guys, I am trying all day to connect to firebird 2.5

I have downloaded the driver from

Firebird: ODBC Driver

After I have installed the driver go into ODBC and try to connect to it, but whenever I click "Test connection" the ODBC crashes and restarts.

any help will be highly appreciated.

Any workarounds you may know feel free to share them

Sincerely Yours,

Angel Tomov

did you already try to connect in Qlik Sense via that ODBC ?

[tomovangel]

yes, I have tried, and its giving me the same error: I attach 2 .jpg from ODBC setup and from qlik sense

[agigliotti]

let's try using the ODBC 32 bit version.

Dear Angel,

Have you tried to run whith local admin permissions?

Do you have another user and folder to store this file then trying to access?

I guess that something about permissions could be a problem.

I have tried, I installed the driver and the same error.
I will do it again now and apply screenshot..

[tomovangel]

Yes I am using the Administrator account.

I will now try to install it with the user I created for qlik sense who has full rights over everything, and will get back to you..

[tomovangel]

hmm, my client's working time ended and my session as well , but tomorrow i will try.
I will check permissions and try with another account..

Have a nice day/night

,Angel

Don´t worry.

You can also try to create a ODBC32 bits connection like mentionned from Andre.

Regards.

Whenever I try to make 32 bits connection,  and click Test Connection, the odbc administrator crashes

attaching screen.
