Solved - DSN architecture missmatch between the driver and the application

carloshp11

This is for anyone who receive this message, probably trying to connect XESame to a csv/database for the first time

I got this error and got mad at it. So I post the solution I found.

When talking about an architecture missmatch it is referring to the 32/64 bits architecture. You must check your database and your XESame versions are both 32/64 bits, and that the ODBC driver you are using is, too. All 32 or all 64 bits.

In my case I was trying to use the example csv from http://www.processmining.org/xesame/examples. My Windows was x64, so I used a x64 bits driver. However I think my XESaame version was x32. I solved this by unistalling ProM and downloading the most recent version of 64 bits.

Hope this helps someone

Hi Carlos and Buijs
I have faced the same error, I've installed 64bit ProM6.5.1 my Windows is also x64, but as mentioned in the instruction named "Running the XESame examples" I used the odbc32.exe
I tried to use odbc64.exe but faced this message  in its window: the driver of this User DSN only has a 32-bit version available.
what should I do now?? could you help me pleas?
