hi, I am in some serious trouble, thought I didn't mess much. I am using ColdFusion 4.5 on Linux with Apache 1.3 and database as MySQL 3.23.43.
However to my distress, first when I wanted my CF to connect to MySQL I had no inkling as to how to connect using ODBC, bcoz like windows there is no direct ODBC interface to create a DSN. However I downloaded sources of MyODBC module from mysql.com and unixODBC from unixODBC.org, compiled and installed. I got the ODBC GUI with unixodbc and KPackage confirmed as MyODBC being installed. However 1. I am still not able to list the available databases of mysql in the ODBC panel 2. after editing the /opt/coldfusion/odbc/odbc.ini file with the manual entry of a datasource specifying the driver to use MyODBC, I my Cold Fusion files are unable to connect to the database. Now what should I do to exactly get the list of available MySQL databases or be able to specify the myODBC dsn Any pointers.
