Hi all, we are delighted to share the servicing update of the Microsoft ODBC Driver 13.1 for Linux and macOS. The new driver enables access to SQL Server, Azure SQL Database and Azure SQL DW from any C/C++ application on Linux and macOS.

    • Get started with Azure AD by checking out the docs here
  • Configurable driver location on Linux
    • Simply copy the whole driver install directory to the location of your choice after normal installation.

Fixed

  • Issue with Floating-point numbers formatted incorrectly in French locale
  • Issue with SQLBindParameter input/output parameters truncating prematurely
  • Implicit cursor conversion due to comments
  • Buffer overrun upon UTF-8 character conversion
  • Symbolic link creation for the RPM package

    I'm trying to run this on top of the official Python container for Docker (FROM python:latest), which is based on Debian 8. However, having issues when running "RUN ACCEPT_EULA=Y apt-get -y install msodbcsql"Perhaps it's my minor experience with this environment but has anyone ran such a configuration successfully?
