Trouble trying to install ODBC driver 12.2 on MAC

Camilo E. ZamoranoJul 4 2018 — edited Aug 8 2018

I've been having a really hard time trying to install the ODBC driver on mac, i followed several instructions, for example these two:

- https://community.oracle.com/thread/4120787

- https://blogs.oracle.com/opal/installing-the-oracle-odbc-driver-on-macos

And i just can't make it work. I have been searching tutorials on a bunch of sites: stackoverflow, youtube, etc but i just can't make it work.

About the blog link: when trying to run the following statement

sudo odbc_update_ini.sh /usr/local

I got the following error:

sudo: odbc_update_ini.sh: command not found

So i just used

sudo sh odbc_update.ini.sh /usr/local

And got:

*** ODBCINI environment variable not set,defaulting it to HOME directory! *** ODBCINI environment variable not set,defaulting it to HOME directory!

No idea what that means honestly.

Lastly i tried connecting to the database through isql on the terminal as follows:

isql OracleODBC-12c dsn user password  | isql OracleODBC-12c  user password

and it doesn't work .

Please help me, i'm kind of freaking out.

Thanks in advance!
