KBI 310965 Issue Addressed: Failed To Install Argent AT Main Engine When Using SQL Mirroring Of SQL Server 2008 Or Later

Version

Argent Advanced Technology 3.1A-1404-A or earlier

Date

Tuesday, 17 June 2014

Summary

When customer attempts to install Argent AT Main Engine uses SQL Mirroring of SQL Server 2008 or later, he can gets DB connection error message

The Database Access Layer library (DAL) assumes using SQL Server ODBC Driver ‘SQL Native Client‘, which is part of SQL Server 2005, when connecting to Mirrored SQL Servers

SQL Server 2008 and later bundles only ODBC Driver ‘SQL Server Native Client 10.0‘ instead

As a result, the DB connection cannot be made

The issue is corrected in Argent AT 3.1A-1404-T4

When customer does the installation, if Mirror Server is selected, he will have option to select the installed ODBC Driver

Technical Background

N/A

Resolution

Upgrade to Argent Advanced Technology 3.1A-1404-T3 or later
