iAnywhere Solutions ODBC Drivers
Introduction to ODBC Drivers
Quick start for UNIX
To use iAnywhere Solutions ODBC drivers on UNIX, there are several environment variables that you may need to set.
You must include the full path to the dynamic link libraries in the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH. For example, if you install the ODBC drivers in the system directory /opt/sybase/SYBSsa9/drivers, then the fully qualified path for the ODBC pack is /opt/sybase/SYBSsa9/drivers/lib.
If you do not include the path /opt/sybase/SYBSsa9/drivers/lib in the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH, then your applications are unable to load the ODBC drivers dynamically at runtime or to display error message text.
Some iAnywhere Solutions ODBC drivers must have environment variables set as required by the database client components used by the drivers. Consult the driver requirements in each of the individual driver sections for additional information pertaining to individual driver requirements.
ODBCINI is an optional environment variable that all iAnywhere Solutions ODBC drivers recognize. ODBCINI is used to locate an ODBC information file other than the default file.
To use the iAnywhere Solutions ODBC driver on Linux Redhat version 9, you must also set the following environment variable:
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1
