If after installation you cannot connect and you see the error message:
[unixODBC][AsterData][ODBC] (11560) Unable to locate SQLGetPrivateProfileString function
do the following:
  1. Find the library libodbcinst.so (libodbcinst.dylib on Mac OS) and note its path.
  2. Set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable so that it includes the directory that contains the library. For example, if the library is in /usr/lib64, then you will type:
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  3. Open the .aster.ini file for editing.
  4. Set the ODBCInstLib item to the correct path where the library libodbcinst.so (or libodbcinst.dylib on Mac OS) is located. For example, if the library is in the directory /usr/lib64, the line should read:
    ODBCInstLib=/usr/lib64/libodbcinst.so
