I am writing a subversion server hook application (command line) on Windows using FPC 3.0.4 and Lazarus 1.8.0 and I have now come to the auditing database connection I want to implement.
The database server is an MSSQLServer Express instance on a Windows 2016 Server and it runs on a non-standard TCP port. In an earlier thread here in Feb 2016 I asked about how to use the TMSSQLConnection component (on a Raspberry Pi) and it was basically running after the help I got. At the time the server I used was running as the default instance on port 1433 and the component probably assumes this if not told otherwise. So I did not think about this problem back then. But now I have to address it, so: How can I specify the port on the host where MSSQL listens? I find no property named "Port" in he component... Secondly: --------- On the Raspberry Pi I had to install a FreeTDS library in order to get a database connection. After I got that advice I included the apt-get install for the library in my standard script for setting up FPC/Lazarus on a Raspberry and forgot all about it. Always working afterwards. But now I am back on a Windows 7 machine and here I don't have a clue as to how one installs the FreeTDS library. Any pointers to how it is done? -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
