Gregor, Your error message should be resolved by an upgrade.
Use the --formats option with ogrinfo to see the status of the ODBC driver. GDAL/OGR's ODBC driver is currently readonly. Refer to http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_odbc.html and http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_pgeo.html for more details. On Thu, Feb 4, 2010 at 5:40 AM, Gregor at HostGIS <[email protected]>wrote: > Hey all.
