Script to build php7 extensions on Slackware64-current

Installation Order

This README explain how to get PHP7 works with Microsoft SQL Server. You can choose using FreeTDS or Microsoft SQL Server Native Client or both.

FreeTDS

• unixODBC
• freetds
• php-pdo_dblib

Microsoft SQL Server Native Driver

• unixODBC
• msodbcsql (msodbcsql17)
• php-sqlsrv

NOTES

• Default Slackware's ODBC library is libiodbc. unixODBC will replace some of libiodbc files. Please reinstall libiodbc if you uninstall unixODBC.

• If you don't like your stock libraries being replaced, then FreeTDS is a safe choice.

• Microsoft SQL Server ODBC Driver from Suse Linux Enterprise repository

• After installing msodbcsql you must install the ODBC driver (run as root):

  This for msodbcsql driver version 13:
  
  shell> odbcinst -i -s -f /opt/microsoft/msodbcsql/etc/odbcinst.ini -l
  
  This for msodbcsql driver version 17:
  
  shell> odbcinst -i -s -f /opt/microsoft/msodbcsql17/etc/odbcinst.ini -l
  

• Add your sqlserver DSN in /etc/odbc.ini like this:

[MYSERVERNAME_OR_IP]
Driver=ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server
Description=My Microsoft SQL Server
Server=IP_OR_HOSTNAME
Port=1433
Database=
User=
Password=

• Test DSN connection using:

isql -v MYSERVERNAME USERNAME PASSWORD

WARNING

By installing msodbcsql binary driver you are accepting all terms and condition in /usr/doc/msodbcsql-@VERSION@/LICENSE.txt

Please read it!
