Title: ODBC connection issue
Post by: tupac_rd on 16 Jul 2010 07:49:08 AM
Hi Gurus,

I am trying to use Lotus Notes db as a datasource. I managed to connect to the notes DB after installing notes ODBC driver, creating ODBC connections, and finally creating ODBC datasource on Cognos Connection in our Dev environment. Now I am doing the same exact steps on our QA server. When I try to create a datasource I am not able to get it to Test the Connection. When I hit 'Test the Connection', it does not say Success or Failed or any other error. It just hangs...

I can create other datasources like Oracle or DB2 etc., its just Notes I am having issues...

Does anybody have any ideas. I am trying to figure out since yesterday and I am clueless.

Thanks
