BUG: "One-time Only" Tracing Option Does Not Stop Automatically

• Microsoft Open Database Connectivity, version 3.0.

SYMPTOMS

One of the ODBC Driver Manager 3.0 tracing options, One-time Only, does not automatically stop tracing after the first traced ODBC application is disconnected from the database or shut down. The ODBC tracing utility keeps tracing for any subsequent ODBC applications.

WORKAROUND

After the traced ODBC application stops, the button in the ODBC Administrator changes from Stop Tracing Now to Start Tracing Now, and the option changes from One-time Only to Don't Trace under the When to Trace group.

You need to click Start Tracing Now and click the Stop Tracing Now button again to actually stop the tracing.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft Open Database Connectivity version 3.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
