I used to connect with native win32 ODBC  and Oracle ODBC drivers to a Oracle server....how about that? Why use unixODBC for wine?

Hi folks,

I'm trying to connect some of our proprietory corporate Windows-based applictions via ODBC to our Oracle database by following as stated in the Wine User's Guide, Using ODBC, but it's to no avail! :(

I have setup

* Oracle 10g Instant Client for Linux 10.1.0.3 (/usr/local/oracle/10.1.0.3)
* unixODBC 2.2.10 (/usr/local)
* Oracle ODBC driver 0.5.4 (/usr)
* CodeWeavers CrossOver Office 4.1 (/appl/os/CrossOver/cxoffice)

My environment looks like

* ORACLE_BASE=/usr/local/oracle
* ORACLE_VER=10.1.0.3
* ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/$ORACLE_VER
* TNS_ADMIN=$ORACLE_HOME/etc
* LIB_ODBC_DRIVER_MANAGER=/usr/local/lib/libodbc.so

My configuration files are located under

* tnsnames.ora: $ORACLE_HOME/etc
* odbcinst.ini: /usr/local/etc
* odbc.ini: /usr/local/etc

Using 'sqlplus' (Oracle; SQL*Net) or 'isql' (unixODBC; ODBC) to connect from the Unix command line to one of the configured databases works perfectly fine! But unfortunately I can't get unixODBC and wine working together! :(

Cheers,
Martin
