A colleague is trying to connect to the MS SQL Server Instance from linux using ODBC driver 17 and get's the below error.

('HYT00', '[HYT00] [unixODBC][Microsoft][ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server]Login timeout expired (0) (SQLDriverConnect)')

The Connection string appears as below:

SQL_SERVER = 'Myserver'
SQL_DB = 'Mydatabase'

'DRIVER={ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server};SERVER=MYServer;DATABASE=MyDatabase;Trusted_Connection=yes'

  • Is the port default 1433 ? – Kin Shah Jul 11 '18 at 13:20
  • I've tried 1434 & 1433 ports obtained from the error log and both have failed – Krishn Jul 11 '18 at 13:24

The same issue was reported here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50046158/pyodbc-login-timeout-error Apparently a change o the settings and the ODBC fixed the issue, you may want to give a try.

Also I'm seeing Trusted_Connection=yes is the authentication possible between the linux and the SQL Server? If not maybe you should go with SQL Authentication.
