Explanation: Use the ODBC Administrator link to check the ODBC DSN for a problem like this:

The "Database file:" field is filled in and "Start database automatically" is checked, but the database is already running. If your ODBC DSN specifies different "Server name" and/or "Database name" values than the ones already in use, it will try to start the same database file a second time, and that is not allowed.
