I just wanted to drop a note out that I got my problem fixed. This is what I did to
fix it...
Advertising
putenv("ODBCINI=/usr/local/etc/odbc.ini");
putenv("ODBCINSTINI=/usr/local/etc/odbcinst.ini");
putenv("LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/freetds/lib");
at the begining of the php script. Specifically the LD_LIBRARY_PATH did
it. Without it I get garbage. I have no idea why and would be curious if
there is any other solution, but regardless I just thought I'd point this
out. This actually came out of the example script in the iODBC php howto
page on iodbc.org.
Just and fyi
