Remember to replace the data source name and database username and password placeholders with appropriate values for your database. Use it to check that you can successfully access your data source from a Perl script. The following script selects and fetches some test data. All discussion in this document relating to the location and definition of ODBC data sources is for unixODBC.Īccessing Microsoft SQL Server from Perl on UNIX or Linux Testing Your Data Source

We have assumed that you are using the unixODBC driver manager.

However, all the Perl examples should work equally well on Windows so long as minor alterations for the command line are made. This tutorial was designed on UNIX and Linux, and we have assumed you are using UNIX or Linux too. This tutorial assumes you have read or understand all the concepts covered in the previous tutorials DBD::ODBC Tutorial Part 1 - Drivers, Data Sources and Connection and DBD::ODBC Tutorial Part 2 - Introduction to retrieving data from your database. To exit, press return in an empty prompt line.Īccess MS SQL Server 7.0, 2000, 2005, 2008, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2019 and Express from Perl on UNIX and Linux. For example:Īt the prompt, type "help" to display a list of tables. # for the SQL Server login, omit this attribute # If the database you want to connect to is the default For example, this SQL Server ODBC data source connects to a SQL Server Express instance that serves the Northwind database:

To show all drivers DBI knows about and their versions: Perl -MDBD::ODBC -e 'print $DBD::ODBC::VERSION ' If you have not got DBD::ODBC installed, see Enabling ODBC support in Perl with Perl DBI and DBD::ODBC for installation instructions. To check that you have the DBD::ODBC module installed: You can use similar methods to the ones shown above to check whether DBD::ODBC is installed and to see what version you have. We used DBD::ODBC 1.11 and DBD::ODBC 1.17. Go to CPAN to get an up to date version of the DBI module. If you get an error saying "DBI cannot be found in you have probably not got DBI installed.

If you get an error like "DBI version 1.40 required-this is only version 1.30 at -e line 1.", you need to upgrade DBI. To see if you have a recent enough version of DBI installed, run:

We used DBI 1.45 and DBI 1.607, but the samples in this tutorial should work with anything after 1.40. Use perl -version to see what version of Perl you have installed. We used Perl 5.8, but you only need the minimum version required by the DBI and DBD::ODBC modules, which is currently 5.6. The pre-requisite software for this tutorial is:
