Can not find driver

[ez2cy]

Having trouble with PokerAce Hud. PT is getting hands etc, PAhud is showing old stats on tables.

Problem is when I first open PAHud, I get an error message.

SQL Connection Exception: Failed to connect to datasource: (Microsoft) (ODBC Driver Manager) Data source name not found and no default driver specified.


Now, I'm had it working for sometime. Recently had a huge problem with Microsoft in which they spent 4 hours fixing my problem, now I have this problem.

I have also checked in Program Filess, that the ODBC driver is installed which it is. Apperantly, PAHud is not finding it.

Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Sorry, I should add. I'm running Windows XP Pro. PAHud has created cache. Just can't seem to find driver??????

In PokerTracker, go File->Maintain Database Names. Select and remove your databases then re-add them back in. This should resolve the problem.

Ok, that worked, partially. I'm not getting the error anymore, however, I'm only getting the hands from now on.

I had problems with postgres that Pat helped me thru. I had to create a new database in PT and import all my old hands as the back up was missing.

I deleted all the database names as you said, put back two that I had before, but PT is not getting to them. What am I doing wrong?

I'm going nuts here. I assume, I'm not typing in the database name correctly when I'm adding it again like you said. Is there somwhere I go to find out what the database names were?

The database names are not of importance. You can rename them and that will not affect functionality...

Make sure that your active database is selected in PokerAce Hud under Options->Preferences->Databases->Holdem

I have put in 3 names I think I had named the databases. I have all three highlighted in PAHud "databases" to use. When I open PT, I have absoulutely nothing in it, all databases are open. I'm now getting a message from PAHud that it cannot clear the cache. ???????

I am just going to try making a new database and import all the hand histories into it. Will take a lot of time, but probably easier.

Ok, this is really getting frustrating. I spent all day moving hands from hand history into a new database. It doesn't show up in PAHud, prefrences, databases.

PT, there is nothing and I'm getting errors that can't create a new database

Ok, I finally got a database in PT up and running. When I open PAhud I get the error. "Unable to update cache. Error executing "SELECT max (game_id) FROM game" ERROR: relation "game does not exist; Error while executing the query.

In the preferences, the database is highlighted.
