That doesn't really add up, you built them right there. Maybe there's an
issue with the ODBC driver? It does load the driver and connect during
setup, including a test run with -t.

unixODBC is what I use, I wouldn't install both. Maybe that's involved
somehow.

I'll look into it, I may have forgotten something. I might have intended
that that be manual during the database setup, can't recall. I know I don't
actually create the schema now, so...

Just adding INTO? I'll make sure that works for SQL Server and just patch
that. Weird that it requires it.

Thanks a lot for the help.
