Hello,

I'm trying to automate the MyODBC driver install on NT. I downloaded the driver from the MySQL website.

When I type 'setup /auto' I get this error 'Setup is unable to install ODBC. C:\~SMPLSTP.T\ODBCINST.INI is either empty or missing.' But when I use just 'setup.exe' the driver installs without a problem.

Could anyone explain this behavior or give me some pointers to perform an auto install on NT. I tried recompiling the MyODBC driver source and debugging it but it prints this error out before it reaches 'myodbc.dll'.

I'm using NT4(SP5). I'm using MyODBC MySQL driver version 2.50.33.00. All the core ODBC components(Administrator, Control panel device, Control Panel Startup, Cursor Library, Driver Manager, Localized Resource DLL, Unicode Cursor Library) are of version 3.510.3711.0.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks SG
