Hello everyone,
I am running Sage 50 Quantum Accounting (Release 2023.1) and ODBC Data Source Administrator (64-bit) version 10.0.22621.1. When I setup MySQL Connector/ODBC Data Source Configuration, I enter all the parameters including Data Source Name, Port, user and Password and click Test and the connection is successful. Obviously this works only when Sage 50 is actually open. I also verified that the user and password are correctly stored in Windows registry.
My issue is that if Sage 50 is closed and opened again, my ODBC user and password credentials are lost and I have to enter them again every time to re-establish a connection. The credentials also dissapear from the Windows registry (PWD and UID).
My boss has the exact same setup, same versions and same permissions and her connection is permanent. It doesn't get broken when Sage 50 is closed and opened again. How to resolve this please? Thanks for any guidance you can provide.
Marc
