We are having troubles to connect an application for Web with Informix. The application was developed using Microsoft Visual Interdev 1.0 with Intersolv ODBC for Informix, version 3.01.0007 and Personal Web Server. The ODBC connection used was Machine DSN, since File DSN with this ODBC does not work. Choosing the ODBC connection as Machine DSN requires that, when the same application is put into the Final Web Server (Internet Information Server 3.0 - IIS 3.0 - from Microsoft), the setup for the Web Server Machine DSN to be the same as it was on the PC where the application was developed. The message that the Web Server IIS 3.0 returns when trying to connect via ODBC is the following: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005' [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data Source name not found and no default driver specified Thanks in advance, Ivan
