Thanks! That was indeed the solution.

Hi,

That must be a typo in the tutorial. Instead of -t try -f (for template file ;-) This worked for me.

Cheers

Betreff: [freetds] Registering the ODBC Driver With unixODBC


Hi folks.

I am attempting to get freetds to work with unixODBC. I found this
tutorial:

http://www.unixodbc.org/doc/FreeTDS.html

It calls for creating a file called tds.driver.template with the
following lines:

[FreeTDS]
Description = v0.63 with protocol v8.0
Driver = /usr/local/freetds/lib/libtdsodbc.so

However, I installed version .64-4 and the so is /usr/lib/
libtdsodbc.so.0 so I modified the tds.driver.template file accordingly.

Then, the tutorial has you run 'odbcinst -i -d -t /etc/
tds.driver.template

but then gives the error: odbcinst: Unknown option t

Is there a different way to associate the freetds driver with
unixODBC? There doesn't seem to be a man page for odbcinst.


Robert
