Hello all, I'm having trouble connecting to Teradata using ODBC. The error that I am receiving is... DataDirectODBC lib Specified driver could not be loaded (SQL-IM003)(DBD: db_login/SQLConnect err=-1) at ... I know that my username and password are correct. I think that I might be missing something in my environment setup though. Here is the code in question:
use strict; use File::Basename; use Cwd; use Date::Calc qw(Today Now); use Sys::Hostname; use DBI; use DBD::ODBC::Teradata; eval { my $tddsn = "odbc_entry"; my $tduser = "username"; my $tdpass = "password"; $ENV{'ODBCINI'} = '/path/to/.odbc.ini'; my $tddbh = DBI->connect("DBI:ODBC:DSN=$tddsn", $tduser, $tdpass, +{PrintError => 0, RaiseError => 0 }) or die $DBI::errstr; } unless ($@);
Thanks for your help.
