I know this has been talked about before, but now it is biting me big =
time.

=20

I deleted my existing connections and tried to create new ones, and they =
donâ€=99t show up. I tried making them System DSNs and I tried =
making them User DSNs, without any luck.

=20

The creation process seems to work fine, and I tested each connection =
before hitting OK.

=20

Some of my other, older connections still show.

=20

Iâ€=99m running Win32 Vista, and just installed =
mysql-connector-odbc-5.1.8-win32.msi.

Well, I did some manual work on the files and registry entries, but to no
avail.

- I uninstalled MyODBC v. 5
- I deleted the myodbc* files from \windows\system32
- I manually edited the paths in the keys for my existing DSNs.

That all worked just fine.

Unfortunately, it didn't fix my problem: the MyODBC setup will not (or cannot)
write the necessary entries into the system registry.

I wound up building the necessary keys by hand:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\MainTable_USA (local test)]
"Driver"="C:\\Program Files\\MySQL\\Connector ODBC 5.1\\myodbc5.dll"
"SERVER"="localhost"
"UID"="access"
"PWD"="xxxxxx"
"DATABASE"="maintable_usa"
"PORT"="3306"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\SubTable_USA (local test)]
"Driver"="C:\\Program Files\\MySQL\\Connector ODBC 5.1\\myodbc5.dll"
"SERVER"="localhost"
"UID"="access"
"PWD"="xxxxxx"
"DATABASE"="subtable_usa"
"PORT"="3306"

I hope this helps somebody.

Since I have to deploy this on several systems, this might actually work out
easier for me.

I couldn't find any bug reports on this issue, so I opened Bug #59010.
