Forum OpenACS Development: Response to ODBC and ACS 4? (SAP or SQL Server 7)

Well you're welcome, but before you load up SAP, you will need a *nix ODBC client and driver manager.

I built and tested this software using Easysoft's ODBC bridge which is proprietary.  There are a variety of libre options, including unixODBC, which is used in the Easysoft package.  But I have no good information on how well the free products work.  The websites are abysmal and haven't been updated in eons, and I didn't have the time to wade through it.

You can get a gratis one connection license from easysoft with which to play and test, and you can get a 30 day eval of their unlimited connection license.

Sigh,
