ODBC Driver 13.0 for Linux Released

  • Article

Hi all, we are delighted to share the Production Ready release of the Microsoft ODBC Driver 13 for Linux –  (Ubuntu, RedHat and SUSE). The new driver enables access to SQL Server, Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL DW from any C/C++ application on Linux

What’s new

  • Native Linux Install Experience: The driver can now be installed with apt-get (Ubuntu), yum (RedHat/CentOS) and Zypper (SUSE). Instructions on how to do this is below.
  • AlwaysOn Availability Groups (AG) : The driver now supports transparent connections to AlwaysOn Availability Groups. The driver quickly discovers the current AlwaysOn topology of your server infrastructure and connects to the current active server transparently.
  • TLS 1.2 support: The driver now supports TLS 1.2 connections to SQL Server.

Install the ODBC Driver for Linux on Ubuntu 15.10

[snippet slug=odbc-rtw-15-10 lang=bsh]

Install the ODBC Driver for Linux on Ubuntu 16.04

[snippet slug=odbc-rtw-16-04 lang=bsh]

Install the ODBC Driver for Linux on RedHat 6

[snippet slug=odbc-rtw-rhel6 lang=bsh]

Install the ODBC Driver for Linux on RedHat 7

[snippet slug=odbc-rtw-rhel7 lang=bsh]

Install the ODBC Driver for SUSE12

[snippet slug=odbc-rtw-suse12 lang=bsh]

Note: Packages for SQL Server command line tools will be available soon. The above mentioned packages only install the ODBC Driver for SQL Server that enable connectivity from any C/C++ application.

Try our Sample

Once you install the driver that runs on a supported Linux distro, you can use this C sample to connect to SQL Server/Azure SQL DB/Azure SQL DW. To download the sample and get started, follow these steps:

[snippet slug=odbc-c-sample lang=bsh]

If you installed the driver using the manual instructions found here, you will have to manually uninstall the ODBC Driver and the unixODBC Driver Manager to use the deb/rpm packages. If you have any questions on how to manually uninstall, feel free to leave a comment below. 

Please fill bugs/questions/issues on our Issues page. We welcome contributions/questions/issues of any kind. Happy programming!

Survey and Future Plans

Please take this survey to help prioritize features and scenarios for the next release of the ODBC Driver for Linux. Going forward we plan to expand SQL Server 16 Feature Support (example: Always Encrypted), improve test coverage, and fix bugs reported on our Issues page.

Please stay tuned for upcoming releases that will have additional feature support and bug fixes. This applies to our wide range of client drivers including PHP 7.0, Node.js, JDBC and ADO.NET which are already available.

    isql -v keeps failing after install on centos 6 (fresh install) with message IM002 Driver Manager. Data source name not found, and no default driver specified. the mssql driver itself works when testing the sample program supplied, so it seems to be unixODBC related. location of odbc.ini verified as /etc/odbc.ini and DSN configuration from working mssql version 11 installation was copied also centos 6). Tried dumbing down the parameters to bare minimum but the same error continues. seems unixODBC doesn't pick up on the correct odbc.ini file. any suggestions or help appreciated.

    Thanks for the terrific installation instructions!Just a suggestion - you may want to mention the dependency on apt-transport-https (e.g. apt-get install apt-transport-https is required before apt-get update when installing on a Docker container for Ubuntu 16.04 https://hub.docker.com/r/library/ubuntu/).

    Nice to see Linux support progressing!Any idea if/when a source distribution will be available? For example, there is no way to get the driver on Debian systems. I suppose adding the driver to the Debian package manager would solve my issue, but there are numerous other linux distros out there from others may want to connect to a SQL Server DB.

      I can cause the same issue on any of our SQL instances (regardless of the "Force Encryption" setting) by setting "Encrypt=true" in the client connection string. The value of TrustServerCertificate, whether true or false, makes no difference to the behaviour.

    I tried installing the driver on an Ubuntu 16.04 where GDAL and PostGIS are installed, I got the following error message:Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:The following packages have unmet dependencies: msodbcsql : Depends: unixodbc-utf16 (>= 2.3.1-1) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.I managed to get it installed but with the consequence that GDAL and Postgis were removed, which is not really useful.

      Hi Chirstian, we are looking into this. Can you also file a connect issue for this? https://connect.microsoft.com/

      Hi, I created a connect issue for this: https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/3126904We are investigating this issue. Can you help answer the following quesitons? 1.) What platform are you using?2.) What dirver manager are you using by running the command => odbcinst –j?3.) Run a ‘ldd’ to get the dependencies of the driver and the bcp binaries? (ldd which bcp, ls -l which bcp, ldd /opt/microsoft/msodbcsql/lib64/libmsodbcsql-13.0.so.1.0)Thanks,Meet

    I'm facing a trouble with this driver, select sql statement returns always null if nvarchar column has more than 16 multibyte characters.I have reported it on the issues page. https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/3122522Is there any way to work around this?

      appending:It seems that this behavior happens if the characters length more than one third of the column definition length.One third of 50 is 16.6666...If nvarchar(15) columns has more than 5 length multibyte characters, this behavior is reproduced.

      Seems like the password/username was not correct. Are you using sql login or integrated auth?

    Is this driver available for ppc64 architecture? (SLES for SAP Applications 11.4 (ppc64) - Kernel 3.0.101-80-default)

      Hi Alberto, we do not support ppc64 architecture. We would love to learn more about your scenarios. Can you create a new feedback item for this here: https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/

    Can this work on Cloudlinux version 6.9. Should I just use the Centos 6 instructions?
    • Anonymous
      June 01, 2017
      Cloudlinux version 6.9 is unfortunately not supported. We currently support CentOS 6,7 Ubuntu 15.x, 16.x, RHEL 6, 7 and SLES 12.

    I'm following the instructions to install on Ubuntu 16.04, and when I get to the step to actually install the packages, I get "Unable to locate package msodbcsql" and "Unable to locate package mssql-tools". I'm running Ubuntu 16.04.2 if that matters. Thank you!

      Ah, I think I may know what might be happening. I just updated this machine from Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit to 16.04 32-bit. Maybe the packages are only for 64 bit, so it can't find appropriate packages that match the architecture? Think that is the case?

        That is correct. Packages only work for a 64-bit architecture.
