The Ultimate Guide to High Availability with MariaDB

Connecting to MariaDB via OPC

I have a synology diskstation NAS running MariaDB. Further there is a Scada software (Siemens TIA) that needs to write data to this database. This runs on Win7 x64.

I use VB script to write to the database. In the past, we did this to SQL server with success. But now our client wants all data on a NAS.

I installed the ODBC connector v2.0 and V3.0 on the scada pc and created an ODBC connection to the mariaDB, the test button says that all is OK and I can select the database that I need.

But when I run the vb script, I always get the same ODBC error: -2147467259 [Microsoft][ODBC] The name of the data source is not found and no standard program found (translated from dutch error text)

This is my code to connect:

Set conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

Set rst = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")

SQL_String = "Driver={MariaDB ODBC 3.0 Driver};Server=10.254.122.107;DSN=VDLDB;Database=VDL;UID=xxx;PWD=xxx;Option=3;Port=3306" conn.Open SQL_String

VDLDB is the name of the ODBC connection VDL is the name of the database on the NAS

Any help on what goes wrong? I used default settings for the ODBC connection
