Tom,

At the following line I think, but I'm not sure, You should write the name of table as your old ovf file.

>         <SrcDataSource>ODBC:****/****@CABIN</SrcDataSource>

Please try to change the line as follows,

<SrcDataSource>ODBC:****/****@CABIN</SrcDataSource,OGRPoints>

Good luck...

Murat

The first step I took was changing my OVF file to use the scrSQL tag with a very simple SQL statement, instead of the srcLayer tag. Both OVF files point to the same view, in the same database.
