Resolving the ODBC_Wrapper.dll Error When Connecting Via ODBC

[intapiuser]

Scenario:

A common error when trying to connect via ODBC to a data source is: "Could not load file or assembly 'ODBC_Wrapper.dll' or one of its dependencies..."

This error can occur after successfully setting up the ODBC connection in the Windows ODBC Data Source Administrator, when trying to use the ODBC connection in the ElasticubeManager.

This error happens due to a missing component in the Windows OS Installation.

Solution:

Please download and install the following update on your Elasticube server: Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Package (x64).

After the installation is complete, restart the Elasticube Manager (and server, if prompted to do so) and try connecting again with your connection string / DSN for the ODBC.
