I am trying to connect to a remote SQL Server with mssql-cli, I use this command:
/usr/local/bin/mssql-cli -S server -U admin -d db -P ****
and I get this error:
Error message: A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 35 - An internal exception was caught)
However, I am able to connect using sqsh with no problem:
sqsh -S server -U admin -D db -P ****
Since I can connect with sqsh but not mssql-cli, and I am able to connect to a local instance of SQL Server, I'm not sure where to go from here.
I found the answer here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1284658/how-to-fix-microsoft-odbc-driver-17-for-sql-server-ssl-provider-ssl-choose-cli
The answer is to update to the latest openssl:
wget https://www.openssl.org/source/latest.tar.gz -O openssl-1.1.1i.tar.gz
tar -zxvf openssl-1.1.1i.tar.gz
cd openssl-1.1.1i
./config
make
sudo make install
openssl version
sudo ldconfig
I also installed mssql-tools and unixodbc-dev - although I don't know if that had anything to do with it:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/linux/sql-server-linux-setup-tools?view=sql-server-ver15
These docs are for 16.04; so you have to change that to 20.04 if you're using mint 20 or ubuntu 20.04 like I am:
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc | sudo apt-key add -
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/20.04/prod.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/msprod.list
sudo apt install mssql-tools unixodbc-dev odbcinst1debian2 msodbcsql17 unixodbc libodbc1
It installs to /opt/mssql-tools/bin, so make sure add /opt/mssql-tools/bin/ to your PATH environment variable in a bash shell.

In Laravel I have my database connection set to sqlsrv
When I shell into my app and run php artisan migrate:status I get the following error:
Illuminate\Database\QueryException
could not find driver (SQL: select * from sysobjects where type = 'U' and name = migrations)
Am I missing a config setting somewhere?
Thanks
This most probably because you only install Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server, but did not install Microsoft ODBC driver for SQL Server for PHP:
Install prerequisites (Alpine)
Install the ODBC driver for Alpine by following the instructions on the Install the Microsoft ODBC driver for SQL Server (Linux). Make sure to also install the unixodbc-dev package (sudo apk add unixodbc-dev). It's used by the pecl command to install the PHP drivers.
Install the PHP drivers for Microsoft SQL Server (Alpine)
sudo pecl install sqlsrv
sudo pecl install pdo_sqlsrv
sudo su
echo extension=pdo_sqlsrv.so >> `php --ini | grep "Scan for additional .ini files" | sed -e "s|.*:\s*||"`/10_pdo_sqlsrv.ini
echo extension=sqlsrv.so >> `php --ini | grep "Scan for additional .ini files" | sed -e "s|.*:\s*||"`/00_sqlsrv.ini
I wrote a system that automates the process of deploying a VM on Microsoft Azure, installs Sql Server on it, and then executes a .sql script against the newly-installed server in order to initialize the environment. On Friday, this was all working as intended. Today, I'm getting this error.
My code has the following relevant imports:
import(
"database/sql"
_ "github.com/denisenkom/go-mssqldb"
)
and uses the following code to actually connect to the database once it's installed (error handling removed for brevity):
// variables
connectionString := "sqlserver://MasterUser:MasterPassword#xx.xx.xx.xxx:1433"
dbName := "mssql"
dbFile := "mssql.sql"
// open database / get metadata sorted
db, err := sql.Open(dbname, connectionString)
defer db.Close()
//Check to see if the connection is successful.
err = db.Ping() // <--------
// file input
fileBytes, err := ioutil.ReadFile("../sql/" + dbsql)
fileReader := bytes.NewReader(fileBytes)
// parse line-by-line
scanner := bufio.NewScanner(fileReader)
lineNo := 0
for scanner.Scan() {
toExec := scanner.Text()
lineNo += 1
_, err = db.Exec(toExec) // <--------
}
The error occurs on both db.Ping() and on every db.Exec(). In those cases, the message associated with err is
TLS Handshake failed: Cannot read handshake packet: EOF
As for the server itself, I install that over SSH with the following script:
# install mssql server
sudo wget -qO- https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc | sudo apt-key add -
sudo add-apt-repository "$(wget -qO- https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/16.04/mssql-server-2017.list)"
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/16.04/prod.list | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/msprod.list
sudo apt-get -y update
sudo apt-get -y install mssql-server
# configure MSSQL
sudo /opt/mssql/bin/mssql-conf setup
# install local tools
sudo ACCEPT_EULA=y apt-get -y install mssql-tools
# do basic initialization in advance of .sql script
/opt/mssql-tools/bin/sqlcmd -S localhost -U SA -P ${MasterPassword} -Q "CREATE LOGIN ${MasterUser} WITH PASSWORD = '${MasterPassword}';"
/opt/mssql-tools/bin/sqlcmd -S localhost -U SA -P ${MasterPassword} -Q "CREATE USER ${MasterUser} FOR LOGIN ${MasterUser};"
/opt/mssql-tools/bin/sqlcmd -S localhost -U SA -P ${MasterPassword} -Q "ALTER SERVER ROLE sysadmin ADD MEMBER ${MasterUser};"
This seems to work fine otherwise - I have no trouble connecting to the instance manually via SSH, and that script exits with no errors. I'm not sure how relevant it is.
I tried SSHing into the server myself and opening a sql server console locally, which resulted in the following error messages:
$ /opt/mssql-tools/bin/sqlcmd -S localhost -U SA -P *********
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : TCP Provider: Error code 0x2746.
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : Client unable to establish connection.
This is probably relevant, but I don't know how.
What's causing this, and how do I fix it? Is the error in my code, on the VM I've created that's acting as the server, or in between? How would I best fix the problem?
I ended up fixing this without identifying the root cause. Once I tried connecting to the VM over SSH and accessing the database locally, I experienced the following errors:
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : TCP Provider: Error code 0x2746.
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : Client unable to establish connection.
Following up on those led me to this GitHub issue, which provided a fix to my problem. It looks to have been a versioning issue - in my install script, I replaced
sudo apt-get -y install mssql-server
with
sudo apt-get -y install mssql-server=14.0.3192.2-2
and the problem went away.
I need to access a Microsoft SQL Server with OGR2OGR from an Ubuntu Server 16.04. It is working on Microsoft, so the basic setup is fine.
My problem is that when I run my OGR2OGR command (after installing GDAL with sudo apt-get install gdal-bin):
ogr2ogr -overwrite -f MSSQLSpatial "MSSQL:server=tcp:<DATABASE_SERVER>,<PORT>;database=<DATABASE_NAME>;uid=<USER>;Pwd=<PASSWORD>;" "<IMPORT PATH FILE>" -nln "<TABLE NAME>" -progress
I get the error:
ERROR 1: Unable to initialize connection to the server for MSSQL:"DATABASE_SERVER";
[unixODBC][Driver Manager]Can't open lib 'SQL Server' : file not found
Try specifying the driver in the connection string from the list of available drivers:
I tried to install Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server based on this instruction, but it cannot be installed when gdal is installed. The error is:
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 install the Microsoft ODBC driver after a while but it meant removing GDAL. So I can either have GDAL or the Microsoft ODBC driver. Is there a way to solve this problem?
Thanks for your help!
UPDATE (2017.01.03): I found the following solution and I also commented on the according article on the MSDN Blog (so far without reply) here
Install UnixODBC if not already there
sudo apt-get install unixodbc unixodbc-dev
Download from somewhere: msodbcsql-11.0.2270.0.tar.gz (it could be better to use msodbcsql-13.x.x.x.tar.gz but I was not able to find it) and
tar xvfz msodbcsql-11.0.2270.0.tar.gz
cd msodbcsql-11.0.2270.0
ldd lib64/libmsodbcsql-11.0.so.2270.0
If there are missing dependencies install them, in my case it could be done like this: (everything except the apt-get install is to fix the naming of the file by creating a link:)
sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0 libssl-dev
cd /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
sudo ln -s libssl.so.1.0.0 libssl.so.10
sudo ln -s libcrypto.so.1.0.0 libcrypto.so.10
Installing and cleaning up:
sudo bash ./install.sh install --force --accept-license
rm -rf /tmp/msodbcubuntu
If the Driver is not found by the tool using it, (e.g. ogr2ogr or pyodbc) edit /etc/odbcinst.ini and create a connector for [SQL Server]
[SQL Server]
Description=Microsoft ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server

sudo apt-get update
sudo ACCEPT_EULA=Y apt-get install msodbcsql17
Verify with
ogr2ogr --formats
Which should then list:
MSSQLSpatial -vector- (rw+): Microsoft SQL Server Spatial Database
I am trying to connect with a MSSQL database using laravel homestead. It always throws the exception:
PDOException in Connector.php line 55: could not find driver.
I've seen a lot of people talking about FreeTDS and Sybase drivers, but I can't seem to figure out what I need to enable laravel/php access to MSSQL databases from a Linux Web Server running the Laravel Homestead Vagrant box.
I did lots of R&D for resolving this issue. Finally found the solution:
Laravel vagrant is using php 7. For mssql support we have to enable the relevant sybase driver for linux :
To Enable MSSQL Support for PHP 7:
First, ssh into your box vagrant ssh from the Homestead folder.
Command : vagrant ssh
Install the Sybase package for enabling the support for PDO and Mssql.
Command : sudo apt-get install php7.0-sybase
then run php -m on the ssh to make sure pdo_dblib is enabled.
All Done!!!! Cheers

Laravel uses PDO extension to connect to database, you could check if the extension is enabled using
var_dump(class_exists('PDO'))
Also, if you could post the specific error, it would be great.
Thanks for this. Still works as of now with:
php7.2-sybase
using DB_HOST= IP_ADDRESS\NAMED_INSTANCE
Commenting out the PORT directive in both .env and database.php
I just installeed Postgres, but it seems to have installed 9.3 and I'd like to start with 9.4
I simply did apt-get install postgresql from a new Ubuntu 14.04.1 machine.
http://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/ubuntu/
says you can do:
apt-get install postgresql-9.4
but when I try that I get:
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'postgresql-9.4
Okay, so I try the section below where you add the PostgreSQL Apt Repository but that can't find anything either.
Is 9.4 not in the package managers yet? Am I doing something horribly wrong?
You can add it from the instructions in the page
http://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/ubuntu/
Create the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list, and add a line for the repository
deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ trusty-pgdg main
Import the repository signing key, and update the package lists
wget --quiet -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.4
postgresql-9.4 is not available in 14.04 "Trusty". It was added in 14.10 "Utopic". It may be back ported in the future.
The directions on the PostgreSQL Ubuntu Download page are missing a command. Their wiki guide has the correct procedure. You must run apt-get update before trying to install. This will cause the system to read changes to the sources.
If you're trying to install on Ubuntu 14.04 "Trusty", you can follow these steps:
To check your version:
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
Release: 14.04
Codename: trusty
1) Create new apt repo file for postgres
$ echo "deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ trusty-pgdg main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list
2) Import repository signing key and update packages list
$ sudo wget --quiet -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | sudo apt-key add -
$ sudo apt-get update
3) Install Postgres
$ sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.4
credit: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/02/install-postgresql-ubuntu-14-04/
Below are steps to install PostgreSQL 9.4 on Ubuntu 14.04.
Reference taken from this Article:
First, check the version of Ubuntu:
lsb_release -sc
You need to add the latest PostgreSQL repository for the latest version, otherwise It will install PostgreSQL 9.3. This is for trusty version.
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ trusty-pgdg main"
Update and Install PostgreSQL 9.4:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.4
Default postgres super user and postgres database is created. You need to set a password for the postgres super user.
ubuntu#:~$ sudo passwd postgres
Enter new UNIX password:****
Retype new UNIX password:****
passwd: password updated successfully
If service is not started, you can start the PostgreSQL service.
sudo service postgresql start
Connect PostgreSQL server using postgres user:
ubuntu#:~$ su postgres
Password:****
Create a sample database:
createdb database_name
Connect to that database:
psql -d database_name
Follow these steps to install postgresql. Open the terminal (Ctrl + Alt + t) and then write down the following command line
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ `lsb_release -cs`-pgdg main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list'
wget -q https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc -O - | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.6
If postgresql installed successfully then it will return this after writing this command
psql --version
psql (PostgreSQL) 9.6.3
PostgreSQL is an open source object-relational database system. It is one of leading database server used for production servers. PostgreSQL allows us to execute stored procedures in various programming languages, like PHP, C/C++, Python, Java, Perl, Ruby and its own PL/pgSQL, which is similar to Oracle’s PL/SQL.
Postgres database is used the persistent store of data
Install Postgres
yum install postgres
(Note : remember the password for the postgres user – you need it later)
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install postgresql-9.6
Setting up Postgres
Launch pgAdmin.
Connect to the local server. Use localhost for the server name, postgres for the username and the password you used when you installed Postgres.
You need to be root to perform this command.Note: If you did not set password during installation (sudo apt-get install postgresql), then you can set it as follows:

sudo -u postgres psql postgres
On the postgres client prompt, use the following command to set the password.
alter user postgres with password 'postgres';
Connect to PostgreSQL
After installing PostgreSQL database server, by default,, it creates a user ‘postgres’ with role ‘postgres’. It also creates a system account with same name ‘postgres’. So to connect to postgres server, log in to your system as user postgres and connect database.
$ sudo su - postgres
$ psql
Now you are logged in to PostgreSQL database server. To check login info use following command from database command prompt.
postgres-# \conninfo
To disconnect from PostgreSQL database command prompt just type below command and press enter. It will return you back to Ubuntu command prompt.
postgres-# \q
