Impala ODBC Driver 2.5.5 old version?

I installed Impala ODBC 2.5.5 (the latest version) on OS X. The driver does not load from unixodbc 2.3.6. The error says 'cannot find file' even though it is pointing to the correct file and all dependencies are present. I checked the timestamp on the lib files:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel       576 Sep 26 2013 SimbaImpalaODBC.did
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 87203512 Sep 26 2013 libclouderaimpalaodbc.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel   3309240 Sep 26 2013 libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel   3309240 Sep 26 2013 libcrypto.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel    769176 Sep 26 2013 libssl.1.0.0.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel    769176 Sep 26 2013 libssl.dylib

These are from 2013, much older than the prior release I had (2.5.22).

I then installed 2.5.41 and everything worked fine again.

If there are useful fixes in 2.5.5 it would be good to get the proper version uploaded.

Hi @CoryIsaacson,

Cloudera Impala ODBC v2.5.5 is the old version, in fact, I think it's the first release.
You are now using the last one 2.5.41 (october 2017).
41 > 5
😉

Good luck.

Thanks, that of course makes sense. I think I see what the issue was, the download page actually had 2.5.5 at the top (so I mistakenly thought it was the latest). Now when I checked 2.5.5 is second from the last so it's obvious it's older. Perhaps it was a glitch with the download page that day, all fine now.
