We're running a MySQL 3.23.47 server on Windows 98, and when trying to connect to BDE version 3.0 (bundled with Borland C++ Builder 1) using MyODBC version 3.51 we get something like
Invalid configuration parameter: Alias: database_alias BDE Error 12550 [0x31][0x6] I've searched the list archives and realize that some people have occasionally come across this problem but haven't found a solution or an indication of what the problem is ... Borland,s web site says of BDE Error 12550 12550 Invalid configuration parameter. One possible cause for the error: ODBC ALIASES. When creating and/or using a BDE alias that is using an ODBC DSN make sure that the ALIAS parameter "ODBC DSN" is set to the DSN that you wish to use and that has been created using ODBC Manager. Available ODBC DSN's can be chosen from the parameter's drop-down edit using the BDE Administrator. Another possible cause: Using ISAPI app and ODBC against NT web server. ODBC DSN on NT machine should be set to "system" instead of "user". Has anyone run into this before ? _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
