ODBC tracing on Windows

Using logs to aid in troubleshooting.

Windows shows ODBC specific tracing in the ODBC Data Source Administrator Tracing tab. You can start tracing there by clicking Start Tracing Now. This logs every ODBC call from this system, and prints the input and output for the call.

Under Tracing

Although this is lower level information, it can still be helpful in troubleshooting. When you are not sure if it is our driver or the tool causing an issue, doing this trace will help narrow the inquiry.

Trace log sample

If you start or stop tracing, make sure you do not have the SSIS client open. Close it, change the trace, and reopen.
