I finally got my zope to start as a service in NT and now all my Z ODBC connections are broken. Probably because they were defined as user DSNs. So I redefined them as System DSNs and now they all return "invalid connection string". Is there a trick to this? Any other way than DSN to connect?

I use ZODC with Zope 2.3.3 (and previous versions) on Win2000 with no problems, and no special connect strings. It could depend on your database odbc driver. I've found one or two that couldn't use the string that odbc offered, so I had to use my own (can't remember for sure, I think that might have been Interbase). What version of Zope and ZODBC are you using? Cheers, Tom P
