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!
