Hi guys

I'm trying to create an odbc connection with Vertical and I'm getting the following error:

"""
Connection Failed
SQLState: IM003
Native Error: 160
Error Message: Specified driver could be not be loaded due to system error 127 (Verica).
"""

Can anybody help me?

    Hi,

    Are you using Vertica's ODBC driver?

    See:

    Community Edition 9.1.1, the driver is being installed on a server running windows 2003. The version is probably not supported.

    Correct. Windows Server 2003 is not supported.

    You can check which platforms for the "Vertica 9.1.x Client Drivers" are supported here:

    https://www.vertica.com/docs/9.1.x/HTML/index.htm#Authoring/SupportedPlatforms/ClientDrivers.htm

    Note: Not even Microsoft supports Windows Server 2003!
