Hi Brian,
If you are not wanting to register the Virtuoso Server as a Windows
service, then you must first start the it manually from the command
line for it to be accessible remotely or locally. This is pretty
simply (think in unix mode) as all you have to do it start the server
as follows with the a Virtuoso binary referencing a valid
configuration like the one provided in the %VIRTUOSO_HOME%\database
directory :
C:\Users\HWILLI~1\VIRTUO~1.8\VIRTUO~1\database>..\bin\virtuoso-t -f -
c virtuoso.ini

This command starts the Virtuoso Server in foreground mode such that
any server activity written to the log is also written to the screen
and is useful when setting things up. If you want it to run in the
background remove the "-f" option when starting. Note also that Ctrl
^C can be used to shutdown the server when running in foreground mode.
Having said that why do you not want to run the Virtuoso Server as a
Windows service ? The reason we recommend the creation of the Windows
service is that it allows the Virtuoso server to continue running
even if you log off the machine ie in unattended mode and also
enables the server to automatically start/ shutdown on machine
startup/shutdown by default or you can config it not to in the
services control panel.
The ODBC DSN configuration images in our online documentation you
refer to are slightly out of data and do need updated which I have
placed an internal request to have done, but the basic configuration
is the same you simply specifiy the hostname:sqlport the server is
running on give it valid uid/pwd and if the server is running in the
location specified the and ODBC connection will be possible ...
Let me know if this works for you ...
Best Regards
Hugh Williams

Hi,
I am trying to do the OpenVirtuoso Windows installation following the
documentation from here:
http://virtuoso.openlinksw.com/dataspace/dav/wiki/Main/VOSUsageWindows
I have done the following:
Created a system variable VIRTUOSO_HOME pointing to the folder with
virtuoso components.
registered virtodbc.dll which succeeded
Now I don't want to use it as a Windows Service so I tried looking at
this article http://docs.openlinksw.com/virtuoso/
odbcimplementation.html#virtdsnsetup
It should first of all be noted that the appearance of the dialog is
not exactly the same on my system as it is in the referenced article.
I supposed this was due to being on Windows XP, for example there is
no port field, so I made my Server be localhost:1111
At any rate when I get to the end of the configuration when I try to
connect I get the message:
SQL State: S2801
[OpenLink][Virtuoso ODBC Driver]CL033: Connect failed to
localhost:1111 = localhost:1111.
Any suggestions, am I going to have to make a go with the Windows
Service? I'm using the current binary at

Bryan Rasmussen
