If this comes back with an error, you most likely have an issue with how the FreeTDS package was installed try removing the download and clearing the Homebrew cache and trying again if that’s the case. You can check for the location of this file by running: tsql -C You’ll want to inform FreeTDS of the IP/hostname and port you’re trying to connect to this is done by adding this information into the nf file. ImportError: dlopen(/Users/mgipson/odbc_py/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/, 2): Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/unixodbc/lib/libodbc.2.dylib Referenced from: /Users/mgipson/odbc_py/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/ Reason: image not found 6.

The no-binary flag proved to be helpful in preventing some errors, namely:.

If you’re reading this and did get it working, please leave a comment with tips :)

I tried installing this in a python virtual environment to use in isolation and it didn’t work - so if you’re trying to do that and having issues just know I tried without success as well.

You can install it by running the following command: python3 -m pip install -no-binary pyodbc pyodbc Pyodbc is a Python module that simplifies accessing ODBC databases. Install pyodbc (only if you care about connecting with Python) Reload whichever file you edited with: source ~/.bashrc If it’s not under Users/YOUR_USERNAME/homebrew/opt/., it might be under /usr/local/opt/. When you do this, make sure the paths are actually correctly. To include something like: export LDFLAGS='-L/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/homebrew/opt/unixodbc/lib $LDFLAGS' export CPPFLAGS='-I/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/homebrew/opt/unixodbc/include $CPPFLAGS' export PKG_CONFIG_PATH='/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/homebrew/opt/unixodbc/lib/pkgconfig $PKG_CONFIG_PATH' You can install this using Homebrew as well with this command: brew install unixodbc 4. UnixODBC is an open-source project that implements ODBC (open database connectivity), an API for accessing DBMS (database management systems). You can install it using Homebrew by running this command in your terminal. Install FreeTDSįreeTDS is a set of libraries that enables the connection to SQL servers.

Homebrew is the package manager for Unix-like operating systems. The configuration steps are essentially the same for Python and R. Hopefully my pain will be your gain! Set Up

This is the primary resource I used to get started in Python and this is what I used for R, but while following along I noticed some errors in documentation and learned a few critical lessons that I’ve incorporated into the following steps.
