Hello kj Gerhart,

Developers are looking into this. The output you sent was not
wonderfully self-evident, if you could get it any clearer,
that would be great.
You can find ready-compiled Binary Tools for AIX at the following 
location :

ftp://ftp.sap.com/pub/sapdb/develop/tools/sapdb-devtools-aix-ppc.tgz

does that help you with your problem, at least in the short term ?
Please let me know.

Michel

Michael:
What can I provide that would help? Do you want the config.log? What? I noticed that were seems to be a lack of AIX machines for testing, if I can help I have a dev unit that we use just for what reason. Has xlC and gcc 3.3 compilers.

My real problem is I need the Maxdb odbc binary in a 32 bit format for AIX. The download is for only 64 bit.  I have to link it to a compiler that is only 32 bit.  Question--> Does this mean that the database has to be 32 bit too. Or can the database be a 64 bit version. If the database can stay 64 bit then I only need to compile the odbc source. But from what I understand the tools have to be installed first. Can the tools be 64 bit or must they be 32?

Has anyone used Maxdb via odbc from a cobol program? Do you have any examples of code I can see?

As I understand it there should be no problem mixing the 32 bit and 
64 versions, you should be able to work with a 64 bit database.

So all you need now is for the 32 bit ODBC driver to compile.
