INFO: ODBC Client Error After Connecting Using MDAC SQL Server Driver
This article was previously published under Q178132
When connecting through SQL Server Driver that comes with Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC), the ODBC Client may receive the following (or a similar) error message after connecting successfully:
The ODBC catalog stored procedures installed on server
MySQLServerName are version 6.50.193; version 07.00.0324 or
later is required to ensure proper operation. Please contact
your system administrator.
: The exact version numbers may differ, depending on the version of the catalog stored procedure and the version of the driver.
This message is primarily informative. When it is seen, it just means that a later Instcat.sql needs to be run by the SQL Server Administrator. The MDAC install places a Instcat.sql file in the system directory. This file matches the version of the driver installed by MDAC and must be run by the administrator.
Running the Instcat.sql Script
To run the Instcat.sql script, use the command line ISQL utility, which is
documented in the SQL or Query Analyzer Server "Transact-SQL Reference" manual:
cd \<default sql directory>\install
isql /Usa /Ppassword /Sservername /iinstcat.sql /oinstcat.rpt
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the SQL Server Driver
included in the Microsoft Data Access Components. We are researching this
problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base
as it becomes available.
