R-sig-Debian help, I have installed an ODBC Driver for Linux.
I want to connect to our database through R via: >library(RODBC) >con <- >odbcDriverConnect("SERVER=IP_address:PORT;DRIVER=ORACLE;DATABASE=MAGNUS") Warning message: In odbcDriverConnect("SERVER=IP_address:PORT;DRIVER=ORACLE;DATABASE=MAGNUS") : ODBC connection failed I don't really know whether this is the right syntax. I copy-paste files "odbc.ini" and "odbcinst.ini": ## file odbc.ini [ORACLE] Driver = ORACLE Database = //IP_address:PORT/MAGNUS User = my_username Password = my_password METADATA_ID = 0 ENABLE_USER_CATALOG = 1 ENABLE_SYNONYMS = 1 ## file odbcinst.ini [ORACLE] Description = Easysoft ODBC Oracle Driver Driver = /usr/local/easysoft/oracle/libesoracle.so Setup = /usr/local/easysoft/oracle/libesoraclesetup.so DontDLClose = 1 FileUsage = 1 UsageCount = 1 Thanks in advance _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Debian mailing list R-SIG-Debian@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-debian
