1. Just to let you know... the dsn connection works as long as "TDS_Version = 8.0" is provided in the dsn settings of freetds for mssql 2000. 2. I went over your sampeles at : http://www.sqlalchemy.org/trac/browser/sqlalchemy/trunk/lib/sqlalchemy/databases/mssql.py and using the mssql:///?odbc_connect=dsn%3Dmydsn%3BDatabase%3Ddb I was able to get proper dns string. The syntax is weird because the code needs to look like this and needs to use "%s" to substitute the string. I don't know if you run into unicode problems or escaping issues. Is there a better way to do this? import urllib url= urllib.quote_plus('DRIVER={TDS};Server=servername;Database=dbname;UID=user;PWD=pass;port=123;TDS_Version=8.0;') e = sqlalchemy.create_engine("mssql:///?odbc_connect=%s" % url) I wish you guys did this in a code so I could only provide something like this: e = sqlalchemy.create_engine("mssql:///?odbc_connect='DRIVER={TDS};Server=servername;Database=dbname;UID=user;PWD=pass;port=123;TDS_Version=8.0;''") Notice the single quotes after odbc_connect=' If not could you copy above 3 lines of code I've put as an example and add it to your docs for mssql. I would never know how to get here without being subscribed to this list and know about the changes and know to look at the source code file. 3. With dsn-less connection there seems to be some kind of issue with pyodbc, but I can't figure out what the problem is. import pyodbc pyodbc.connect('DRIVER={TDS};Server=servername;Database=dbname;UID=user;PWD=pass;port=123;') Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> pyodbc.Error: ('08S01', '[08S01] [unixODBC][FreeTDS][SQL Server]Unable to connect: Adaptive Server is unavailable or does not exist (20009) (SQLDriverConnectW)') Anybody might know how to solve this?
