I installed a SAP MaxDB ODBC driver and I created a user DSN called MaxDB_Source. But every time I test the source in the SSIS connection manager, this error always pops out:
The strange thing is, when I choose the connection from the 'Use user or system data source name' drop down list in the connection manager, test connection would always fail and the "Use connection string" would look something like this:
< Dsn=MaxDB_Source;uid=xxxxx >
However if I choose the "Use connection string" and build it, test connection succeeds and "Use connection string" looks like this:
<Dsn=MaxDB_Source;servernode=xxxx.xxxx.net;serverdb=xxx;uid=xxxxx>
But it only works when I build it. It won't work even if I copy this exact connection string and paste it in the "Use connection string" blank.
I don't want to have to build the connection string every time I use this connection, so I wonder if there's any way to solve this so I could just select the source from the drop down list just like any other connection?
Thank you.
