I just installed Lazarus release 1.6 from svn sources and it seemed
OK. I have FPC 3.0.0 also installed from svn sources.
All is installed on a Raspbian Jessie system on a Raspberry Pi2
device.
When I click the btnOpenDB to run the OpenConnection method an
exception is generated:
Debugger Exception Notification
Project DBTest raised exception class 'EInOutError' with message:
Can not load DB-Lib client library "libsybdb.so". Check your
installation.

I thought that since there was a SQLDb component TMSSQLConnection
available it would be possible to connect to a database server running
MSSQL, but apparently something is missing here.
THe message talks about libsybdb.so, what is that and do I need some
other stuff to go with Lazarus to do database work?
This is the FreeTDS library, an open source library that is needed to
connect to SQL Server. FPC's SQLDB TMSSQLConnection implementation uses
this library.
You simply need to install it on your system (if it is available).
Install also the -dev version of the package.
Michael.
