Hi, I have had the same problem in the past.... If you have a multi server environment I.E. CI/DB Apps wherever you put the LIB library you must beon that sever when executing the test program.. Hope that helps. Mark

Hi, I would assume the pdb file was part of the lib bundle I got off OSS. Now I have one of my ERP6 systems that runs Oracle but I am connecting to an open source DBbased through MSS As you mentioned you have the libs loaded in the exe/run directory. To connect to the MSS system I have had to create an system DNS ODBC on the source system.In my case I run an Hetrogeneous system environment UNIX CI/DB IBM window blades, so I createdthe ODBC on the app server. Now my DBCO connection string is MSSQL_DATASOURCE=<Name of ODBC> The test program then worked. Also there will be som good trace files out of it for analysis run report

Hi, As mentioned I have put these files i.e. DBMSSSLIB.DLL and DBMSSSLIB.PDB (64bit) in the followingdirectories and restarted the server: X:\usr\sap\SID\D*\exeX:\usr\sap\SID\sys\exe\runX:\usr\sap\SID\sys\exe\ (i386 or ntamd64) \ (nuc or uc) tried again but still it is showing the same error when i execute ADBC_TEST_CONNECTION programin SE38: -

Testing a Database Connection Defined in DBCON Could not open connection ABCsql error 1- occured:-

SQL Server is Standard Edition and OS is Windows 2008 R2 64bit. Our SAP Server is also Windows2008 64bit. Please advice what to do now because I have done entries in DBCO Transaction correctly asmentioned by the note 178949 i.e. CON_NAME: <my_conn_name>DBMS: MSSUSER_NAME: <db_user>PASSWORD: <password>CON_ENV: MSSQL_SERVER=<server_name> MSSQL_DBNAME=<db_name> I am using SQL Server Administrator Username/Password to connect to this Server.

Hi Mark, Yes i tried with ODBC. ODBC shows that the connection is fine. I tried to use OLEDB and it was notworking with SQL Server. Then for the test i made MSAccess Database, made its ODBC connectionand tried with the same OLEDB code and it was working fine. I think there is an issue between this SAP and SQL Server 2008. SAP is not able to communicate toSQL Server 2008 with DBConnect or ODBC. DLL and PDB Files are placed in run directory of SAP inthe Server as mentioned but still no use. Please advice. Thanks,Usman Malk
