ODBC Not Available Execute SQL

February 18, 20196 yr

I am able to connect to the MySQL database via the ODBC/DNS/ESS on the Apache server and see the tables in the relationship graph.

But when I try to use the script step Execute SQL the Data source is not available ?? And I need to create a record in certain table in OFBiz when the user create a new record in FileMaker. The related records do not create as they do within FileMaker related records.

AFAIK the external data source definitions work only for creating ESS TO's

To program an Execute Sql script step you deal directly with the ODBC DSN definition, and you need the OSBC DSN set upon the machine you are on and also on the server Using the same DSN name for a hosted file.

This should have been fixed by FMI years ago

Once set up the step uses the host DSN connectiion to execute
