The ODBC Driver 1.0 for Linux from Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=28160) works very well for me. It allows me to use the same driver (SQL Server Native Client 11.0) on both Linux-based development machine and Windows-based production server. With this added to odbcinst.ini: [SQL Server Native Client 11.0] Description=Microsoft SQL Server ODBC Driver V1.0 for Linux Driver=/opt/microsoft/sqlncli/lib64/libsqlncli-11.0.so.1790.0 Threading=1 UsageCount=1 I can then use a simple SQLAlchemy URL: mssql+pyodbc://<username>:<password>@<server>/<database>?driver=SQL+Server+Native+Client+11.0 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
