Win 7 64 bit : ODBC error to access the DB
« on: July 08, 2013, 10:33:13 pm »
Hi,

I need to access a shared MySQL database via ODBC from EA using a 64 bit Win7 PC.
I followed the instructions on http://www.sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/9.2/projects_and_teams/setupmysqlodbcdriver.html

I'm getting the following error when using the connection wizard : "The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and the Application".

Is there any solution?

thanks
Guillaume

Note : I already tried running C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe

Yes, use a 32 bit driver.
