Hi James,

Tried configure --disable-iconv but it still looked for and used iconv,
so I renamed the iconv executable, header file and library then did a
configure. Configure couldn't find iconv and suggested I install
glibiconv.

Once make and make install had finished, I get the same illegal
instruction (coredump), but the log is different:

08:38:31.549425 Starting log file for FreeTDS 0.63
on 2006-02-28 08:38:31 with debug level 99.
08:38:31.549705 Using trivial iconv from
iconv.c

It does seem iconv is the problem, but how can I stop the program from
using it or solve the problem? I will look at downloading and compiling
the glibiconv that was mentioned.

Dave

Hi David,

The next message in your TDSDUMP log would be from iconv, something
like:

write.c:134:tds_put_string converting 9 bytes of "localhost"

Maybe the problem is iconv? Try --disable-iconv.

Please let us know. I may need to update the UG.
