  Verify Installation and Configuration  
 
  ODBC is not properly installed  
 
 

On Windows

32-bit ODBC must be installed in order for ColdFusion to function properly. The ColdFusion setup program automatically attempts to install ODBC. However this part of setup can fail if the files the ODBC setup program is trying to install are in use.

To verify that ODBC is installed properly, open the ODBC Control Panel. The data source used to verify your installation is called cfsnippets, and should appear in the main list box.

If the ColdFusion cfsnippets data source does not appear, you should restart Windows and rerun the ColdFusion Setup program.

On Solaris

Check the cfsnippets data source entry in your odbc.ini file. You can also verify the data source in the ColdFusion Administrator. As a last resort, you should reinstall the ColdFusion package file.
