Summary: Will not run on Windows 2000 and older, missing symbols
Initial Comment:
psqlODBC version: 8.04 0200
Attempting to use the driver under Windows 2000 in ODBC driver manager yields this:
"The setup routines for the PostgreSQL ANSI ODBC driver could not be loaded due to system error code 127"
then another dialog:
"Driver's ConfigDSN, ConfigDriver, or ConfigTranslator failed"
"Could not load the setup or translator library"
I turns out that the psqlodbc*.dll is missing these symbols in WS_32.dll: freeaddrinfo, getaddrinfo, getnameinfo
This article explains why they are missing, these were added in XP but there is a trick to make them work in earlier
versions.Basically this could be fixed with a recompile. I could not compile with VS6 but I am having a go with Visual
StudioExpress 2008 (I usually use mingw for all Windows development so this may not work).

Message:
I've tried 8.4.0202 as suggested by Hiroshi, installing over 8.4.0100, and for me it works, even with SSL.
I've done only basic tests so far.
Hiroshi, can i ask you how do you have resolved the WS_32.dll problem? With Win2000 i'm facing error with this DLL with
anincreasing number of open source programs. Clearly it's an obsolete os that many developer cannot test anymore, so i
cantry to propose your solution (i.e. to qemu).
What compiler are you using?
Thank you for your work.
Cesare.

I can confirm this bug: 8.04 0200 under Win2000 SP4 gives the same error as Darrel and also for me the previous 0100
works.At least one step further, since SSL is not activable, but it's another story...
Cesare.

I discovered that rolling back to 804_0100 solves the
problem, for now. I hope this works as well as 0804_0200.
