    Coouldn't connect Access to MariaDb

    I would connect MS Access 2021 on a win8 machine to my MariaDb server 10.6.16 on an Ubuntu 22.04 machine.



    I installed MariaDb ODBC connector and created a DSN. When I test it, it said :

    Code:
    Connection successfully established
    But, when linking MS Access to my DSN, I go the message :

    Code:
    [ma-3.1.20]No data source or driver specified; dialog prohibited [#0]
    Could someone help, please ?

    when you created the DSN, did you click TEST DATA SOURCE? did it say successful?
    if not you need a new driver.

    Yes I do. I apologize, I didn't explain clearly.

    I did test the DSN and it said :
    Code:
    Connection successfully established
