Recently computer poisoning, helpless under the 32-bit XP replaced by 64-bit Win7, boring time-consuming development environment, installed vs6.0 (ignoring all incompatible), loaded 64 MySQL ("Mysql-5.6.10-winx64.zip"), everything seems very smooth, And then I took it for granted. "Mysql-connector-odbc-5.2.2-ansi-win32.msi" "ODBC Driver Manager" and then go to the Control Panel data source to find the driver manager, the problem appeared! does not show the corresponding driver manager, go to the program inside to see, clearly installed Ah! Helpless ah just want to be installed 64 ( This is a wrong inference ), so went down the "Mysql-connector-odbc-5.2.4-ansi-winx64.msi", and then go to the data source to find, sure enough, to say that some parameters set good, And then go back to the program and run into a problem. "ODBC connection error: Data source name not found and default driver not specified", let me be surprised, obviously drive manager Ah, but also configured. Suddenly think of my program is 32-bit, this is right! 32-bit program how to use the 64-bit driver Manager! But the 32-bit outfit has not recognized, how to do? To Baidu, enlightened, the original Win7 32-bit ODBC data Source Manager placed in the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe, with him to add 32-bit ODBC data source. Add finish, open the program, all right!
WIN7 64 bit on MySQL ODBC some personal understanding
