Retreive Metadata problem

We get the following error when trying to import table definitions. We are making a connection to DB2 database using Ascential's ODBC drivers, IBMrios-odbc-5.0.050414.

DSR.MetaGeta(GET.TABLES)(SQLTables): BCI Error:
SQLSTATE=S1000,CODE=1248,[DataStage][SQL Client][ODBC][DataDirect][ODBC DB2 Wire Protocol driver]Unhandled CodePoint: 35

Any ideas on what this could be?

Thanks and appreciate your help,

Hi, did you try to test the connection and the driver?

cd `cat /.dshome`
. ./dsenv
cd ../branded_odbc/demo
./demoodbc
./demoodbc dsnname -uid username -pwd password

(or run ./bin/dssh and then >LOGTO project_name >DS_CONNECT DSN)

then test the driver

cd DSEngine/bin
./ivtestlib DriverName

for AS400 you need to run the bind command.

When I try to test the ODBC, we get the following error:

SQLConnect: Failed...
SQLSTATE = 77
NATIVE ERROR = 0
MSG = 523 76

SQLConnect: Retrying Connect.
SQLConnect: Failed...
SQLSTATE = 77
NATIVE ERROR = 0
MSG = 523 76

SQLConnect: Retrying Connect.
SQLConnect: Failed...
SQLSTATE = 77
NATIVE ERROR = 0
MSG = 523 76

SQLConnect: Retrying Connect.
No connection could be established.

Check all the entries for this datasource in .ODBC.ini file. DSN name and driver name are to be verified in the INI file.

This is resolved. There was a problem in the odbc.ini file.

Thanks Mat for your time,

u r wlcm.

by the way to test the driver you should go to "branded_odbc/bin" directory (instead DSEngine/bin -sorry) and run ./ivtestlib DriverName

You seem to be in a locale where there is a shortage of vowels. Do you create your system documentation thus? Please don't do it here - not everyone here has English as a first language, so these kinds of abbreviation aren't helpful.

It wasn't my intention to create confusion for dsx users (sorry DSXchange users)
