Ok, I tried using the FreeTDS driver for unixodbc and I got a more detailed error message that might shine a light: Failed to connect The driver reported the following diagnostics whilst running SQLDriverConnect IM007:1:0:[unixODBC][FreeTDS][SQL Server]Could not find UID parameter HYC00:2:0:[unixODBC][FreeTDS][SQL Server]Driver not capable 0(0) auth_db:str_fixup: Unable to open database connection 0(0) ERROR: fix_expr : fix_actions error ERROR: error -1 while trying to fix configuration These are my entries in /etc/odbc.ini [SYBASE] Driver = /usr/local/lib/libtdsodbc.so Description = Sybase Server Trace = Yes Trafcefile = /tmp/odbc.log #Servername = JDBC Server = xx.xx.xx.xx Port = 2000 DSN = database Database = database #UserID = username # I tried using both UID and UserID, had same results UID = username Password = passwd TDS_Version = 4.2 These are my entries in /etc/freetds.conf: [SYBASE] host = xx.xx.xx.xx port = 2000 tds version = 4.2 _____ From: devel-bounces(a)openser.org [mailto:devel-bounces@openser.org] On Behalf Of Lenir Santiago Sent: Thursday, December 08, 2005 11:18 AM To: devel(a)openser.org; users(a)openser.org Subject: [Devel] unixodbc connection problem Guys, Im trying to use unixodbc.so to connect to a Sybase database using Sybase native ODBC drivers. This is the entry that I have on: /etc/odbc.ini: ============= [SYBASE] Description = Sybase ODBC Data Source UserID = username Password = passwd Driver = ASE Server = xx.xx.xx.xx Port = 5000 Database = database UseCursor = 1 /etc/odbcinst.ini ============ [ASE] Description = Sybase ODBC Driver Driver = /opt/sybase/ODBC-12_5/lib/libsybdrvodb.so FileUsage = -1 UsageCount = 1 The database is on a remote host. I can connect from the openser server using unixodbc's isql tool, as such: [root@ser openser]# isql SYBASE username passwd +---------------------------------------+ | Connected! | | | | sql-statement | | help [tablename] | | quit | | | +---------------------------------------+ SQL> This proves that unixodbc is installed correctly and that the Sybase odbc driver is installed and functioning properly.
