Please check the Zope log for details about the cause of
the problem.

There are a few things (among others) that could this:

* the wrong version of mxODBC Zope DA was installed;
   note that this depends on the Python version you are
   using with Zope

* the license files are not installed or damaged

* the product ZIP archive was installed to the Zope instance
   directory; mxODBC Zope DA up to version 1.0.8 can only be
   installed to the Zope install directory (we'll fix this in
   1.0.9)

* there was already a version of egenix-mx-commercial installed
   in the system and Zope is picking up this wrong version
