Does anyone know where I can get a unixodbc driver for Pervasive 2000i ?

TIA for any help.

I doubt one was ever created. There was a Linux engine, which had an
ODBC driver, but I'm not thinking it'd work on Unix.

The shared object in question appears to be called libodbcci.so .
This apaprently used to be available from pervasives site in a tarball.

The linux examples set are still available, but they expect you to
already have the odbc driver. (presumably it expects you to be running
pervasive on the linux machine).

This is how i did it. I use the 8.70 Client, but you can use your 2000
client


# tar zxf Pervasive.SQL_8.70_Client_Linux.tar.gz
# cd Pervasive.SQL_8.70_Client_Linux
# tar zxf Pervasive.SQL-Client-8.70-014.000.i486.tar.gz
# mkdir /usr/local/psql
# cp -Rv psqlclient/* /usr/local/psql
# cd /usr/local/psql
# etc/clientpostinstall.shAdd a DSN for your dba server

# bin/dsnadd -dsn=dba -host=<your dba server> -sdsn=<the servers
DSN>Move the current odbc.ini out of the way and create a symlink to
the psql odbc.ini in /etc

# cd /etc
# mv odbc.ini odbc.old
# ln -s /usr/local/psql/etc/odbc.iniCreate symlinks for all the odbc
drivers from psql to /usr/lib

# cd /usr/lib/
# ln -s /usr/local/psql/lib/* ./Test the odbc connection

# isql -v dbaAt the prompt do a sql select statement e.g.

SELECT * FROM BKICMSTR

Thanks, the problem is, that I only have the windows version of the

I just checked the CDs again, and there's only a windows and DOS
