Install unixODBC

To install the ODBC on Linux you must use your package manager on Linux:

sudo apt install unixodbc

Once you complete the installation on your environment, set the FairCom DB ODBC Driver as described in the FairCom ODBC Driver Guide in the topic titled Unix/Linux ODBC Managers.

In our example the odbcinst.ini is:

[ctreeSQL]

Driver=/usr/lib/odbc/libctodbc.so

Description=ODBC for ctreeSQL

Host=localhost

Database=ctreeSQL

The odbc.ini is:

[FairCom DB ODBC Driver]

Driver=ctreeSQL

Host=localhost

Database=ctreeSQL

User ID=ADMIN

Password=ADMIN

Service=6597

Description=ODBC for ctreeSQL

To allow the unixODBC install the odbcinst and odcini you must execute the following commands:

odbcinst -i -d -f /etc/odbcinst.ini

odbcinst -i -s -l -f /etc/odbc.ini

You can test if your DSN is installed by executing:

odbcinst -s –q

Result: [FairCom DB ODBC Driver]

Please consider to set ODBCINI on environment variables:

export ODBCINI=/etc/odbc.ini

Now you can check if you unixODBC is configured for c-tree by running a tool connected to a unixODBC data source. For example, you can execute the Interactive SQL (isql) from /usr/bin as shown below:
