[OFF] Ubuntu/CentOS ODBC Driver #40
Comments
Hi Douglas, I've been struggling for the past weeks with the ODBC drivers on Linux. Personally, I succeeded to install the iSeries ODBC on a CentOS 7 VM, and I've been using the old "iSeriesAccess-6.1.0" driver. It's working up to some extent, and it might work in scope of laravel-db2. If by any chance, you have an access to the IBM ESS with a product giving you access to that new client, could you please send me an email ? I'm really desperate to find that one for a long time already If you need the drivers I'm using for CentOS, please contact me by email as well, I'll be glad to share. Have a nice day |
Hello, Just a question, why are you guys using the ODBC driver and not the PHP PDO? The only reason I can think of is licensing? Anyway, the PDO is much easier to configure. I created a gist with my install script for the IBM driver and the PDO. You can find that script here. The script was made for Ubuntu/Laravel Forge but it should be a good starting point. Hope this helps! |
Hi @bironeaj, |
@wolojonathan, in the end I was able to update Ubuntu 11 where there was the old ODBC already installed. So I did not need to reinstall the driver. @bironeaj, what do I need to install on Linux to work this way? Is your DB2 an as400? |
@douglasjunior I wanted to let you know the driver will run on the latest Ubuntu and CentOS. As mentioned before, here is the install steps I go thru for setting up a Laravel Forge server. You should be able to adapt it for your needs. It is an iSeries/AS400. |
Thanks, I think the issue can be closed now. |
Just to document, I'll add the script here. Thanks @bironeaj! # Install Dev Package

@douglasjunior No problem. The URL on line 6 will need updated. IBM signs the download URL. You will have to login to IBM and get a new URL. |
Thank you @bironeaj!! Just on doubt... if you already define IP, username and password in the script, why declaring them again in the laravel driver configuration? |
@nulele Different developers have different logins... Helps maintain the Laravel way of doing versioning on the DB tables |
I was able to work with this library on Windows (XAMPP) with the ODBC Driver iSeries.
Now I need to deploy the project in production, and I would like it to be on Linux. The company support team only has one Ubuntu 11 VM with the ODBC Driver installed successfully. According to them it was not possible to install the driver in newer versions or other distributions.
My question: What is the ODBC Driver, and which Linux distribution/version are you using?
My server is an AS/400 late 2009.
