Re: FreeTDS problem

I, too, have done this. Actually, I do it quite often because I keep playing with all of the settings. Here is my list of what I do.

1) Configure FreeTDS './configure --prefix=/usr/local/freetds --with-tdsver=4.2'
2) make FreeTDS 'make'
3) 'make install'
4) Configure Apache './configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache'
5) go to /etc/ld.so.conf and add '/usr/local/freetds/lib'
6) run 'ldconfig'
7) write your interface file for FreeTDS
8) in httpd.conf write 'SetEnv SYBASE /usr/local/freetds'

That should do it.

I have tried all of this (except the Apache thing, since I'm running the script from a terminal, it's not CGI). I also tried the 2.2.19 kernel, with no change. I had set the SYBASE variable in the profile, so it would be system wide. I am wondering if I've missed some other requirement, like having SAMBA running, or possibly something running on the NT machine?	[reply]
