ODBC Driver 13.1 for Linux Released

Hi all, we are delighted to share the Production Ready Release of the Microsoft ODBC Driver 13.1 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

Added

  • BCP API Support 
    • You can use functions through the ODBC driver as described here on Linux
  • Support for user defined KeyStoreProvider for Always Encrypted
  • Ubuntu 16.10 support
    • Developed a package for Ubuntu 16.10 to ensure an apt-get install experience
  • Dependency on the platform unixODBC Driver Manager instead of the custom unixODBC-utf16 Driver Manager
    • This avoids conflicts with applications/software that depends on the platform unixODBC Driver Manager

Fixed

  • msqobcsql.h  (Connect issues 3115331, 3114970)  
    • Missing definitions for AE, BCP, and SQL Server specific types were added 
  • TRUST_SERVER_CERTIFICATE connection attribute is always yes (Connect 3116639)  
    • Setting the TRUST_SERVER_CERTIFICATE connection attribute to anything other than yes failed to set the attribute value.  This has been corrected. 
  • Fixed Connect issue 2693027 - Memory Leak 
    • We detected this issue independently of the bug report using valgrind.  The memory leak has been fixed.
  • Driver failure when connecting with more than 1024 handles
    • Switched away from libio select. Driver now supports (theoretical) handle limit of 64k or platform max 
  • Intermittent commlinkfailure when using Azure DW 
    • In some high latency scenarios over an encrypted channel, the driver could fail unexpectedly. This has been resolved

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!

          Can you try installing msodbcsql and mssql-tools separately? In different apt-get commands. apt-get install msodbcsqlapt-get install mssql-tools

        Thank you Bhagdev -- looks like RHEL 6.5 works but 6.8 has trouble and complaints though could be something else. Something i believe worth while mention is that pre-check you're doing -- odbcinst -q -d -n "ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server" -- complaints if odbcini is managed centrally and pushed via puppet to a host where driver(s) might not be installed.

    I have added the packages and the gpg key. apt update shows that packages.microsoft is being fetched fromWhen I run “sudo ACCEPT_EULA=Y apt-get install msodbcsql” i get this error: E: Unable to locate package msodbcsqlI am using ubuntu 16.04

      For the benefit of others who may run into this issue, the repository and the ms sql odic driver is 64 bit only. i.e. the command dpkg --print-architecture should show amd64 and NOT i386 (which is 32 bit). This can lead to the error package not found even though the repository gets added correctly
    • Anonymous

      Are you running on 32bit or 64bit?

        I am running a 32-bit OS (Debian 8.8) on a 64-bit virtual machine. I am getting this same error, is it possible to use 32-bit? It ignores the microsoft package repo because it specifies 64-bit.

          We only support 64-bit for the ODBC Driver.

    I'm installing everything on Ubuntu 16.04 with no problems, but then running your example yields the error:"The driver reported the following error SQLAllocHandle(SQL_HANDLE_STMT)"what could be going wrong?

      Hi Amit, are you on a 64-bit or 32-bit machine? What version of unixODBC are you running? Can you please file an issue on connect? We will triage it promptly.

      We will get the devel package signed and put it up asap. You shouldn't need to copy keys on RHEL/CentOS otherwise.

      There are not plans to support this at this time. We now no longer use a custom (utf-16) Driver Manager. We are using the system shipped Driver Manager to make sure we don't break support agreements.

        Thank you for the quick response. I used the nogpgcheck option and was able to complete the installation. I successfully tested the driver using isql utility as well at the application level (SAS).

          What steps did you follow for Debian Jessie? Seems like apt-get did not resolve the dependencies.

      Hello m chen, happy to look into this. Can you confirm that you added the Microsoft packages repository? Can you share the output of ls /etc/yum.repos.d
