Thread: How to know there is any ODBC Driver installed in the Linux redhat 5.7 server? Thanks

I tried test the ODBC driver. I failed and I was told I should install the
odbc driver manager to configure the ODBC driver first, then I can test the
ODBC drive. And the following ODBC driver were installed on my server :
psqlodbc-08.02.0400  psqlodbc-08.03.0400  psqlodbc-09.00.0200
psqlodbc-08.02.0500  psqlodbc-08.04.0200


Please give me some help of the ODBC driver, Should I install the ODBC
driver manager? something like data direct???

Thanks.

Grace

First, are you sure you want the Driver Manager on the Linux server not
the Windows clients?

Second if you are looking for Linux Driver Managers, the two I know of are:

unixODBC
http://www.unixodbc.org/

iODBC
http://www.iodbc.org/dataspace/iodbc/wiki/iODBC/

Third there is a Postgres list dedicated to ODBC:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-odbc/

Hi Adrian,

Thanks. I tried to understand how the ODBC driver works. Is that true that
there should be some odbc driver manager and otherwise the ODBC driver can't
work properly.  Our ODBC driver is installed on linux 5.7 for the informatic
use. Before we deploy the informatic, we want to test the ODBC driver works
or not? I was told that there should be some odbc driver manager to test the
function of ODBC.

Thanks.

Regards.
Grace
