Configuring ODBC on the Windows server

You must configure ODBC before proceeding, if you see this error message:

ODBC DSN ‘ECEDIGS’ need to be defined for eeserver.mdb
in the install directory
  1. Open the ODBC Data Source Administrator in the Windows Control Panel.

  2. Select the System DSN tab in the ODBC Data Source Administrator.

  3. Click Add to display the Create New Data Source window. Select the appropriate driver, then click Finish.

    NoteThe initial configuration database that is required (ECEDIGS) is a Microsoft Access database that is shipped with EC Gateway.

  4. When the ODBC Microsoft Access Setup (Access 97 or 2000) window appears, enter ECEDIGS into the Data Source Name text box. Enter EC Gateway Configuration DB in the Description text box. Click Select.

  5. Navigate to the directory where the EC Gateway is installed. The default is C:\ecedigs. Select eeserver.mdb.

  6. Click OK to return to ODBC Microsoft Access Setup window.

  7. Click OK to return to the ODBC Data Source Administrator window. You should now see ECEDIGS under the System Data Sources list. Click OK. The configuration database DSN is now configured for the EC Gateway.
