A bonus for today is a guest post by my colleague Senthil Dhamotharan. He shares the steps to install the and the on macOS. ODBC is an open specification for accessing databases. The Oracle ODBC driver for Oracle Database enables ODBC applications to connect to Oracle Database.

ODBC Manager database connection administrator for Mac OS X. ODBC driver vendors are encouraged to include ODBC Manager with their drivers. Dec 10, 2018 - Want to know more about Open Database Connectivity (ODBC). The installation process for the driver, go to File > Utilities > Setup ODBC.

In addition to standard ODBC functions, users can leverage Oracle specific features for high performance data access. Install the unixODBC Driver Manager • Download unixODBC from. I used unixODBC-2.3.1.tar.gz. • Open a Terminal and extract the package: tar -zxvf unixODBC-2.3.1.tar.gz • Configure unixODBC: cd unixODBC-2.3.1./configure Note if you use the configure option '--prefix' to install into locations other than the default directory (/usr/local) then macOS's SIP features may prevent the unixODBC libraries being located correctly by the ODBC driver. • Build and install unixODBC: make sudo make install Install the Oracle ODBC Driver • Download the Oracle 12.2 Instant Client Basic and ODBC packages from. To reduce the installation size, the Basic Light package be used instead of Basic, if its character sets and languages are sufficient. • Extract both ZIP files: unzip instantclient-basic-macos.x64-12.2.0.1.0-2.zip unzip instantclient-odbc-macos.x64-12.2.0.1.0-2.zip This will create a subdirectory instantclient_12_2 • The Oracle Instant Client libraries need to be in the macOS library search path, generally either in /usr/lib/local or in your home directory under ~/lib.

I did: mkdir ~/lib cd instantclient_12_2 ln -s $(pwd)/libclntsh.dylib.12.1 $(pwd)/libclntshcore.dylib.12.1 ~/lib • With version 12.2, a small patch to the driver name in instantclient_12_2/odbc_update_ini.sh is required on macOS. I changed line 101 from: SO_NAME=libsqora.so.12.1 to SO_NAME=libsqora.dylib.12.1 • Run the configuration script cd instantclient_12_2 sudo odbc_update_ini.sh /usr/local sudo chown $USER ~/.odbc.ini This creates a default DSN of 'OracleODBC-12c' • Edit the new ~/.odbc.ini configuration file and add the Oracle Database connection string. My database is running on the same machine as ODBC () and has a service name of 'orclpdb', so my is 'localhost/orclpdb'. I changed: ServerName = to ServerName = localhost/orclpdb Verify the installation Run the isql utility to verify installation. Pass in the DSN name, and an existing database username and password: $ isql OracleODBC-12c scott tiger +---------------------------------------+ Connected! sql-statement help [tablename] quit +---------------------------------------+ SQL> You can execute SQL statements and quit when you are done.

Test Program To test a program that makes ODBC calls, download. • Edit odbcdemo.c and set the USERNAME and PASSWORD constants to the database credentials. • Build it: gcc -o odbcdemo -g -lodbc odbcdemo.c • Run it./odbcdemo The output will be like: Connecting to the DB.

Thanks for this. I have followed these instructions I have a ORACLE LOGIN string of my database: user/password@myhost.com:1521/RED that works with 'sqlplus user/password@myhost.com:1521/RED' putting 'ServerName = myhost.com:1521/RED' into ~/.odbc.ini and trying 'isql -v mydsn user password' results in: Errors in file: OCI-21500: internal error code, arguments: [17114], [0x7FD87F81A180], [], [], [], [], [], [] ----- Call Stack Trace ----- calling call entry argument values in hex location type point (?
