It's illegal Python. OK. So It's not just a version or platform problem then. The code calling the hyphenated module path is at the top of the __init__.py file in the mssql directory, as I mentioned before. Since I now have django-pyodbc in my Pythonpath, I have tried to hack the __init__.py file to call modules without the django-pyodbc part and have now gotten a bit further on my error path. I will report back later if I do succeed with anything useful. > I did just go and have a look around the google-code source repository > for this project and I don't really understand what's going on at all > there.

When I searched for MS SQL server support, I came across this Django ticket: http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/5062 As you can see, a number of people were involved in patching code for MS SQL server support, and finally someone nick-named jacob lifted the code off to http://code.google.com/p/django-pyodbc/ in February this year. Since then, very little seems to have happened, and I would very much like to know the status of this project and/or if there is anyone around using parts of this code to access an MS SQL server from an Linux environment.
