在远程服务器中获取 ODBC 错误，但本地主机有效 - Django-mssql-backend

Question

I'm deploying a Django app in IIS, but I'm getting the following error:

('IM002', '[IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified (0) (SQLDriverConnect)')

my settings.py has the following:

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'sql_server.pyodbc',
        'NAME': 'DatabaseName',
        'HOST': 'HOSTNAME',
        'USER': 'username',
        'PASSWORD': 'password',
        'OPTIONS': {
            'driver': 'ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server',
            'collation': 'SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS',
            'SERVER': 'Hostname',
            'DATABASE': 'DatabaseName',
        }
    }
}

with this configuratio it works when I run it in my dev environment, but when I move it to deploy it doesn't work, not even when I do a manage.py runserver I have installed the following packages:

django django-filter django-msssql-backend pyodbc

how can I troubleshoot? in my dev enviroment connects to the same database and server, but in the deployed location it just gives the error when trying to do runserver command.

I'm connecting to a Sql server version: "Microsoft SQL Server 2014 - 12.0.2548.0 (X64)"

I have Django 3.2.4 Python 3.9.5 Django-mssql-backend 2.8.1

Answer 1

That error indicates that the driver you've listed can't be found on the server. So install the driver on the target server.
