I'm trying to use pyodbc to import a dataframe in Azure ML Workbench. This works in local runs, but not for docker. It fails when trying to establish a connection to the SQL Server, because the driver is not present.

cnxn = pyodbc.connect('DRIVER='{ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server}';PORT=1433;SERVER='+server+';PORT=1443;DATABASE='+database+';UID='+username+';PWD='+ password)

Error Message:

pyodbc.Error: ('01000', "[01000] [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Can't open lib 'ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server' : file not found (0) (SQLDriverConnect)")

When searching for a solution I found that I could put these lines in the docker file

ADD odbcinst.ini /etc/odbcinst.ini

RUN apt-get update

RUN apt-get install -y tdsodbc unixodbc-dev

RUN apt install unixodbc-bin -y

RUN apt-get clean -y

However, I'm new to docker, and cannot figure out where to put these lines in the ML Workbench. It seems the docker file is generated through docker.compute and conda_dependencies.yml, but nothing similar to the lines above can be found in either of those or anywhere else in the solution.

You can build docker image with dependencies you need and specify your image name inside the docker.compute file:

baseDockerImage:<your docker image name>

I created azml_pyodbc_image, you can try to use it with:

baseDockerImage: "aksanakuzmitskaya/azml_pyodbc:firsttry"

DRIVER='{ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server}'
