Hi,

I can’t find the QT Sql driver for FreeTDS (sqlserver) the library is libqsqltds.so. I just don’t like sqlserver but I need to connect to one just to transfer data to a PostgreSQL database.

I’m found a workaround using UnixODBC but FreeTDS with QTDS is more simple to configure.

thanks in advance

If I am correct, SUSE 13.2 does not exist (but I am not realy an expert on SUSE Linux Enterprise). Can you please confirm you made a typo and wanted to say openSUSE 13.2?

Yes it exists ! :slight_smile:

that is about openSUSE, not SUSE!

SUSE is here: https://www.suse.com

Ok! sorry I will fix the question!

#6

In fact is Open SUSE 13.2

I had already tried it and looked in unstable packages but I did not find one that provides this sql driver plug-in.
thanks

Then post the complete error from Terminal in Code-Tags.

The error is caused by the absence of the driver in the system. I did not find the package to install the QT Sql plugin for QTDS

I thought OpenSuse had already this drive compiled as it is in other distributions.
If there is no binary package for QTDS in Open SUSE, I will have to download the source code and make it.

Thanks
