Dear all,
I get a MS ACCESS database file (a.mdb) .
Then i upload it to my linux host :/home/test/a.mdb .I wanna to connect this db file by perl script.
BTW,i have installed these module: unixODBC-2.2.12,mdbtools-0.6pre1, and DBD-ODBC-1.15. my script:
use strict; use DBI; my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:ODBC:driver=Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb +, *.accdb);dbq=a.mdb") or die "Can't connect to Database: $DBI::errstr";
But it report a error msg:
DBI connect('driver=Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb, *.accdb);dbq=a.mdb +','',...) failed: [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data source name not foun +d, and no default driver specified (SQL-IM002) at ./test.pl line 4 Can't connect to Database: [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data source name +not found, and no default driver specified (SQL-IM002) at ./test.pl l +ine 4.
How fix this issues? Or any suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks
