Error SQLCE database

[AnthonyQt]

Hi everyone,

I have a problem when I want to connect to my sdf database
This is my code

I try with

db.setDatabaseName("Data Source=F:\data.sdf;Persist Security Info=False;")

But with this two case I have the same error :
QSqlError("0", "QODBC: Unable to connect", "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified")

Do you have an idea?
Thank in advance

@AnthonyQt said in Error SQLCE database:

db.setDatabaseName("Data Source=F:\data.sdf;Persist Security Info=False;")

Just to be sure, like your original code you do use \\ here in your code, don't you?

db.setDatabaseName("Data Source=F:\\data.sdf;Persist Security Info=False;")

I have the same error :/

db.setDatabaseName("Data Source=F:\\data.sdf;Persist Security Info=False;")

Give my QSqlError("0", "QODBC: Unable to connect", "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified")

@AnthonyQt @JonB already told you that you should use \\ instead of \ , so please change the path accordingly...
\ is escape character in C/C++.

@AnthonyQt
You can see your pasted code still shows

"Data Source=F:\data.sdf;Persist Security Info=False;"

Meanwhile your original screenshot showed you using "F:\\data.sdf".

Please learn to use the forum's Code tags to show your code correctly, then we would know.

Is it too hard to answer my question about whether you have \ or \\ in your string?

UPDATE I believe you have now edited your earlier post to change. Use Code tags! Who knows....

@JonB

I have \\

But same error

@AnthonyQt
Then if it works without Persist Security Info=False; (please verify), I can only assume that SQLCE ODBC driver does not like that parameter.....

[AnthonyQt]

I made this but I have the same error
QSqlError("0", "QODBC: Unable to connect", "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified")

But this give my true

@AnthonyQt
But your very original post seemed to me at least to be saying you had it working with "F:\\data.sdf" but not with "Data Source=F:\\data.sdf;Persist Security Info=False;". Now it sounds like your issue has nothing to do with Persist Security Info=False;. I wish you would be clearer....

Anyway, I can only guess that Data source name not found error message means either the syntax is wrong or F:\data.sdf does not exist/is not accessible.

No It never worked
I do this and move the database to D to see if the problem come from accessibility problem

And I have this

I don´t understand what is my error
