Hi Folks,
I'm trying to connect to a local Progress database using the following:
$dbq = "C:/SD20/sims.db";

The ODBC-link must be a System-DNS and not a User-DNS. Configure your ODBC-link and then modify your configuration with regedt32. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC_INI and open your ODBC-link. The field DBQ contains the path to your database. This path must be without Drive-names (e. g. "M:") so change it to "\\Server\folder\database.mdb". This setting is changed each time you modify your ODBC-configuration using the Windows-tool, so make sure you do this afterwards.
Then you go to the Services-Section in your Systemmanagement. Select the properties of your Apache module. In the login-section you have to make sure you login with a valid User-Account for your Network-Server.
Please note that this way you still have no permission to access linked tables within the linked database
