QuNect ODBC for QuickBase on Linux

QuNect ODBC for QuickBase® is the world's first ODBC driver for Intuit's® QuickBase®.

QuNect ODBC for QuickBase allows you to access your data stored in QuickBase directly from many Linux applications including Informatica. It works with the unixODBC driver manager but not the DataDirect driver manager. Although QuNect ODBC for QuickBase functions perfectly with the DataDirect driver manager while it is on trial, once the DataDirect license manager kicks in it prevents the DataDirect driver manager from working with QuNect ODBC for QuickBase.

Installation Instructions

Please download the file libqunect.so by clicking on the download button above. This can be placed in the directory /usr/lib. The remaining instructions assume that you have. If you have chosen to place it elsewhere make sure to take that into account when following the instructions below. If you're using the unixODBC driver manager, you can find the location of odbcinst.ini and odbc.ini by running the command:

        odbcinst -j
            

Edit the odbcinst.ini to add the following three lines:

        [QuickBase]
        Description     = QuNect ODBC for QuickBase
        Driver          = /usr/lib/libqunect.so
            

then you need to add the following 4 lines to your odbc.ini file making sure to replace yourQuickBaseUsername with your QuickBase username, and of course replace yourQuickBasePassword with your QuickBase password.

        [QuickBaseViaQuNect]
        Driver = QuickBase
        Description = QuNect ODBC for QuickBase
        uid=yourQuickBaseUsername
        pwd=yourQuickBasePassword

The name and value pairs you place in the odbc.ini file are the same ones you can put into a QuNect ODBC for QuickBase connection string.
