This sounds like a permissions problem. Make sure that you define
the DSN as a system DSN and that the service account under which
mxODBC Connect Server runs has access to this DSN and/or Access
file.

Here's something Google returns for the above error:

That discussion there suggests a problem with the authentication management
used for the Access DB.
