SQLException: [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][SequeLink Server]The specified data source is not

Community Beginner ,

I'm using Cold Fusion 2016. 

I know the ODBC DSN works because I can use Excel to connect to the same AS400 DSN using it.

As you can see in the screen shot I can also connect via the C:\ColdFusion2016\cfusion\db\slserver54\tools\ivcheckodbc.exe utility.

I've tried restarting, rebooting etc etc.

Any ideas?

In the Administrator page whose printscreen you've shared, click on AS400. You will get see the settings for the datasource. Could you please share them. Then we can have a look and see if they match the settings in the CMD screen.
