Answer from AI

Installing the msodbcsql driver on Astra Linux typically involves the following steps:

  1. Adding the Microsoft repository (if available for Astra Linux) or downloading the package directly from the official website.
  2. Installing dependencies required for the driver to work (e.g., unixODBC).
  3. Installing the msodbcsql package using a package manager (dpkg or rpm depending on the Astra Linux distribution).
  4. Configuring ODBC: adding the driver to configuration files /etc/odbcinst.ini and /etc/odbc.ini.

Example of installation via dpkg:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install unixodbc-dev
wget https://packages.microsoft.com/ubuntu/20.04/prod/pool/main/m/msodbcsql17/msodbcsql17_17.10.2.1-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i msodbcsql17_17.10.2.1-1_amd64.deb

After installation, check the driver operation using isql or similar utilities.
