I am receiving an error when trying to connect to the Oracle Database using RODBC on a 64-bit Windows Server OS. The version of R is 2.10.0-win32.exe
Is this the wrong version. Does RODBC only work with 32-bit ODBC drivers? 've read over all the posts and documentation manuals. The system is Windows Server 2003 with R 2.81. and the latest downloadable RODBC package. The Oracle SID/DSN is mfopdw. I made sure to add it to Control Panel->Administrative Priviledges->Microsoft ODBC system/user DNS. I've also tried the following in no particular order: 1.) Turn on all oracle services in control panel->administrative priviledges. 2.) Checked tsnnames.ora for SID. 3.) Add microsoft ODBC service to Control Panel services for SID 4.) Use Sqldeveler to test connection another way besides R (It was successful) 5.) channel<-odbcDriverConnect( connection="Driver={Microsoft ODBC for Oracle}; DSN=abc,UID=abc;PWD=abc;"case="oracle") received error drivers SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_ENV failed one time; another time I got the error that Oracle client and networking components 7.3 or greater is not found. 6.) tnsping mfopdw lsnrctl start mfopdw tried to add oracle/bin to path Nothing is working. -Melanie [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
