Library Odbc32.dll Could Not Be Loaded to Perform the Query

• Microsoft Internet Information Server version 1.0

SYMPTOMS

When you try to use an Internet Database Connector (IDC) file with Internet Information Server (IIS) to connect to a database (any type of database), you may get the following error message:

The library Odbc32.dll could not be loaded to perform the query.

CAUSE

This error may be caused by the following:

• The Odbc32.dll file is not installed or not in a location where IIS can find it.



• The Odbc32.dll file is damaged.



• The Odbc32.dll file permissions do not allow the IUSR_SERVERNAME account access to the file. This is common on domain controllers where the administrator has restricted permissions on the Microsoft Windows NT system directories to make the server more secure.

RESOLUTION

Verify that Odbc32.dll file is installed, and check the file and directory permissions on the file. The IUSR_SERVERNAME account must, at minimum, have READ access to this file.
