I have a CF8 VPS on Windows 2008(64 bit) that I've started moving sites to for a client. A couple of these sites use MS Access databases and when I've tried to create a DSN in CF Admin I keep getting the following message: "The ColdFusion ODBC Server service is not running or has not been installed. You may also use the "MS Access with Unicode" driver to connect to MS Access datasources." When I try to start the CF ODBC Server I keep getting the following message: "Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion." Has anyone seen this? I know that from what I've read, the 64bit Windows 2008 does not comme with ODBC drivers for MS Access. Any ideas?? I'm still "googling"!!
