Thanks James and Bill.

I used your "regen" script to setup stuff for the configure script. I then hacked the makefile with:

SYBASE_LIBS = -lct -ltds -lnsl -ldl -lm

I also had to put the following lines in:

SYBASE_LIBDIR = -Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib \
-Wl,-R/usr/local/lib \
-L$(SYBASE_OCOS)/lib

..otherwise sqsh couldn't find the libct.so.3 and libtds.so.4 library files
(I found that on the post
https://lists.ibiblio.org/sympa/arc/freetds/2005q2/018442.html)

I can now connect to MSSQL but when I'm querying textual information I get
the error:

Open Client Message
Layer 0, Origin 0, Severity 9, Number 99
WARNING! Some character(s) could not be converted into client's character
set. Unconverted bytes
were changed to question marks ('?').
Open Client Message
Layer 0, Origin 0, Severity 78, Number 52
Unknown marker

I'm guessing it's some sort of charset setting in the freetds configuration
file?

Thanks for your help

I am having problems compiling sqsh-2.1.3 against freetds-0.63 on a Redhat9 Linux server. I managed to compile freetds-0.63 OK and I have verified that it works by using tsql utility to query one of our SQL Servers. However, I now want to get Sqsh working. The "configure"

script
runs OK, but when running "make" I get the errors:

cmd_bcp.o(.text+0x3fb): In function `cmd_bcp':
/home/psl/sqsh/sqsh-2.1.3/src/cmd_bcp.c:927: undefined reference
to `cs_loc_drop'
cmd_bcp.o(.text+0x40b):/home/psl/sqsh/sqsh-2.1.3/src/cmd_bcp.c:922:
undefined reference to `ct_close'

...

Has anyone managed to compile Sqsh against freetds-0.63 before?


Yes.
$ ldd `which sqsh`
/usr/local/bin/sqsh:
-lc.12 => /usr/lib/libc.so.12
-lct.3 => /usr/pkg/lib/libct.so.3
-ltds.5 => /usr/local/lib/libtds.so.5
-lm.0 => /usr/lib/libm387.so.0
-lm.0 => /usr/lib/libm.so.0
-lcrypt.0 => /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.0
-lreadline.5 => /usr/pkg/lib/libreadline.so.5
-lcurses.6 => /usr/lib/libcurses.so.6

It looks like your linker is not finding libct. Try pointing your
LDFLAGS to the installed FreeTDS libraries. I have a little script
"regen" that sets the environment before building sqsh:

$ head regen
export LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -L /usr/pkg/lib"
export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -g -I/usr/pkg/include"
export SYBASE=/usr/local
./configure --with-readline=/usr/pkg

HTH.
