ODBC Data Sources (64-bit) Data Source config error

ODBC Data Sources (64-bit) Data Source config error

If you are encountering the "GDS Function not linked" error, this is because the Client Library field currently points to our Devart InterBase ODBC Driver library (DevartODBCInterBase.dll) instead of the InterBase client library (ibclient64.dll for 64-bit).

To resolve this, specify the correct path to the InterBase client library in the Client Library field. For example: C:\IB\Client\64\ibclient64.dll
​
Notes
Note: We do not provide InterBase client libraries, as our driver supports connections to various InterBase versions.

The bitness of the client library must match your application's bitness, regardless of the server's bitness.

The 32-bit client library is gds32.dll, while the 64-bit version is ibclient64.dll.

Typically, InterBase client libraries are found in the %InterBase%\Bin directory, where %InterBase% is the InterBase installation path.

Since obtaining the client library is unrelated to our driver's functionality, you may need to contact the appropriate support team or specialized forums for futher assistance.
