Dear friends,
we have a web based application which utilizes servlets which connect to a MS-SQL database.
While connecting to the database the ODBC creates a connection & then we get an application error, 'rundll32'
We have to terminte the ODBC configuration due to which we are unable to create & use the DSN connection.
Kindly send your replies to the above mentioned problem.

At the risk of stating the obvious it sounds like you have a corrupt dll (dynamiclinklibrary).

Try testing the ODBC connection using something other than your application to help narrow down the problem. If you get the same error you may need toreinstall ODBC.

If not then you have a problem with your application.

Have you tried changing the app userid to SA to see if that resolves your problem? If that does, then you have a permissions problem and need to give your application ID the proper permissions. usually that does not create the error you said, but I have seen it a time or two depending on what you are doing and version you are using.
