Обсуждение: Problems compiling odbc

I'm trying to install psqlodbc-08.00.0102 on my RedHat AS 4.0 box.  However, when I try to run the configure script it abends.  Please help diagnose this problem so I can get the newer odbc driver in install.

You need to install the development package for the driver manager.  The
package might be called unixodbc-devel or iodbc-devel or similar.

You may also need an explicit --with-unixodbc on the configure line;
leastwise that's what Red Hat's RPM does.

Thanks,

Installing the development package for the unixODBC fixed the problem.
