Runtime Error 3151
If you stumbled upon this issue, chances are you're (re)installing an old software client on a new-or-newly-updated Windows 7 64-bit system. That program - often run time error 3151 ms access an archive/administrative/management service client or a similar home-made piece of software -  uses a persistent ODBC connection to a local or remote DB via an ODBC DSN interface defined at user or system level using the Windows ODBC Administrator tool. The Problem The aforemetioned client can't find the ODBC Data Source entry, err 3151 therefore showing an error pop-up containing the following: ODBC Call Failed - Error 3151 Or, depending on the ODBC driver installed: ODBC Connection Failed - Error 3146 First thing we need to do is to check if the latest version of the Windows ODBC is properly installed and if a proper Data Source pointing to the DB we need to connect has been set: you can check both of these by opening the Windows Control Panel and navigate through Administrative Tools -> ODBC Data Source Administrator. If there's something missing there, fix that and check again, otherwise keep reading. The Analisys This specific issue is mostly related to how Windows 7 and above handles ODBC connections. Starting from Win7 the OS contains two different ODBC Data Source Administration tool executables: the 32-bit one and the 64-bit one. You can find them in the following folders, as explained in a note of this official KB article: ODBC Administrator (32-bit) c:\windows\sysWOW64\odbcad32.exe 1 c:\windows\sysWOW64\odbcad32.exe ODBC Admin

All worked fine up until yesterday when trying to login using the usual username/password gives the above 3151 error. The line in the VB which generates this is: Set rstRoles = sfdb.OpenRecordset("Roles", dbOpenDynaset, dbSeeChanges)which is opening a simple table of http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic446169-5-1.aspx roles to check which level the given user is at. Two things:1 I've noticed the transaction log is huge (12 GB) and had just run out of space to grow, but having freed up plenty more disk space, I still get the error2 I can open the database in admin mode and view the tables as normal. Just can't run the front end which the users need.I noticed one post which recommended running the linked tables utlility, which I've done but no difference.Any thoughts or suggestions welcome.:) Post #446169 Minaz AminMinaz Amin Posted Tuesday, January 22, 2008 11:22 PM Mr or Mrs. 500 Group: General Forum Members Last Login: Thursday, September 10, 2015 1:24 AM Points: 580, Visits: 1,750 Is it possible to post the SQL Server error message.
