Ubuntu: how to set up ODBC

Post by bangkok » Thu Jul 15, 2010 10:24 pm

Now that my RevServer is working (read here), I would like to create a cgi irev file that will access a database on my local network, through ODBC.

How to set up the ODBC data source name (DSN) with Ubuntu 10.04 ?

From RunRev / irev.file I should be able to :

Code: Select all

 put revOpenDatabase("ODBC","MYDATASOURCE",,"Mylogin","MyPass") into dbID
On Windows, I use DataDirect Sequelink, without any problem. But I'm totally new to Linux.
