Driver''s SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_ENV failed

  • I get the above error when attempting to connect to a SQL Server running on my local stand-alone machine.

    I think this is something to do with ODBC as I cannot start SQL Server Agent (it starts but then stops) and cannot create an ODBC User DSN for SQL Server. I get the same message when trying to connect through Query Analyser.

    The SQL Server Agent is running under the local system account.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance,

    Roger Smith

     

  • I've no idea what caused this problem. However, I solved it by installing MDAC 2.8.

    Roger.

  • That worked for me as well. NICE
