Re: Incompatibility with FreeTDS/ODBC and Unicode on a MSSQL server?

2009-02-25 Thread kgingeri

Ok, I figured this out myself...

I had to un-install all pre-installed odbc stuff - unixODBC (possibly
iODBC as well, except it didn't seem to actually uninstall completely)
and FreeTDS.

I then got source and did configure/make/make installs of unixODBC
first, then FreeTDS.
This order is important so that the ./configure command can find all
the right stuff.
An important note is the params for the FreeTDS ./configure command.
I used the following:

$ ./configure --with-unixodbc=/usr/local  --enable-msdblib --disable-
libiconv --with-tdsver=8.0

Anyway, it's working now without complaint!

:v)

I should add a couple more things here that may have a bearing on my
problem...

a) I am running Ubuntu Linux and
b) I am accessing my data via a VPN connection
c) I have done most of my installs via Synaptics but will try to redo
some with compiling from source.

If I answer my own question, I will post back here.

Thx again for any ideas  :v)

Incompatibility with FreeTDS/ODBC and Unicode on a MSSQL server?

2009-02-16 Thread kgingeri

I am fairly new to Django and am working my way through the latest
tutorial and get the error below.  I have the latest dev for Django
installed (I know cuz I started out with 0.96), the most recent
FreeTDS, pyodbc and django-pyodbc.  My isql and running all the api
stuff works fine with my SQL Server database but, when I try to use
the admin app I get the traceback below

Calling up http://localhost:8000/admin/ in my browser, yeilds...

Traceback (most recent call last):

...several lines here - I cut them for brevity...

ProgrammingError: ('42000', '[42000] [FreeTDS][SQL Server]Unicode data
in a Unicode-only collation or ntext data cannot be sent to clients
using DB-Library (such as ISQL) or ODBC version 3.7 or earlier. (4004)
(SQLExecDirectW)')

I reinstall several packages to be sure I have the latest, but still
no luck.
Any help is appreciated!
