Description

Hi All,

I am trying to connect to SQL server 2012 using Pyodbc and DJango framework but the version of Django is 2.1. Now, when I try to connect using below code when I only have Pyodbc installed then the below code doesnot run.

DATABASES = {

'default': {

# 'ENGINE': '{ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server}', Tried this as well but it did not work.
'ENGINE': 'sql_server.pyodbc',
'NAME': 'MY_DATABASE',
# 'HOST': 'XXX.XX.XXX.XXX', Tried this as well but it did not work.
'SERVER': 'XXX.XX.XXX.XXX',
# 'HOST': 'SQLSERVER_InstanceName',
'PORT': ,
'USER': 'SQLSERVERUSER',
'PASSWORD': 'USER's PASSWORD',

'DATABASE': 'MY_DATABASE',
# 'Trusted_Connection': 'Yes',

# 'OPTIONS': {
# 'driver': 'ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server',
# }

},

}

But when I install django-pyodbc-azure and try to run the above code by running python manage.py inspectdb command, it works.

But the problem with using django-pyodbc-azure is that it downgrades the current version of django to 2.0.8 version - which I do not want.

I do not want to use FreeTDS or Pymssql. I want to go with pyodbc only.

Can someone please suggest some way for this?
