[python-sybase] Sybase Module 0.37 and FreeTDS v0.64.dev.20060110

[Camillo Pereira (TUSC)]

Hi,

I have installed FreeTDS v0.64.dev.20060110 successfully 
and then compiled the sybase module 0.37.  The problem occures
when I try to import Sybase:

>>> import Sybase
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Sybase.py", line 20, in ?
    from sybasect import *
ImportError: libct.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory


I noticed that a similar problem was experienced by Hugo at the posting
on
http://www.object-craft.com.au/pipermail/python-sybase/2004-December/000344.html
but no resolution was posted.

I had also tried using FreeTDS(0.63) with the same error, however it was
looking for libct.so.3.

STEPS CARRIED OUT:
 => Installing FreeTDS
    # ./configure --disable-odbc --disable-libiconv
--enable-sybase-compat --prefix=/usr/local/freetds
    # make; make install; make clean

 => Installing Sybase python module
    # export SYBASE=/usr/local/freetds
    # python setup.py build_ext -D HAVE_FREETDS


Am I missing something during the build stage of 
the sybase module??

Any pointers would be much appreciated.

Regards,
