Can not add a new datasource

Question

I've downloaded and installed ColdFusion 9.0.1, Windows 64-bit on my Windows 7 machine on an administrator's account.

When I attempt to add an Access file, I receive the following error:

Unable to update the NT registry.
Variable DRIVERPATH is undefined.

Trying to add an "Apache Derby Embedded" DSN just produces an error as well (Database not found).

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Dave

Hi Dave,I am not sure CF 64 bit is going to talk to an access database because of some 32 bit ODBC problem.The Apache Derby Embedded should work tho. Are you pointing the datasource to the root of the derby data? eg ColdFusion9\db\artgalleryWhat else - perhaps install SQL Express add a database setup a sql user for the database. Point a CF Microsoft SQL Server datasource to the database.HTH, Carl.
