Anyone ever install mssql drivers in distro?

Distro Discussion & Help

I’m running distro 13.0.191.10 and we need to use mssql in an agi script (because that’s what corporate runs) and I’m following the howto at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/connect/odbc/linux/installing-the-microsoft-odbc-driver-for-sql-server-on-linux. It says to “sudo yum remove unixODBC #to avoid conflicts” but will that cause any problems for freepbx?

I think yes, look at the dependencies of UNIXODBC::

asterisk13
asterisk13-addons
asterisk13-addons-bluetooth
asterisk13-addons-core
asterisk13-addons-mysql
asterisk13-addons-ooh323
asterisk13-core
asterisk13-curl
asterisk13-dahdi

Well right… I should have posted the whole script instead of the link since it also does…

ACCEPT_EULA=Y yum install msodbcsql-13.1.4.0-1 mssql-tools-14.0.3.0-1 unixODBC-devel

Given that does it seem safe?
