如何在microsoft AZURE服务器（PaaS）中安装msodbcsql

Okay, so basically I have now deployed an Web App in Azure, but I cannot seem to make it to connect to a separate SQL SERVER. I have provided all the desired App settings for the connection but it seems no good.

Now I search for possible causes:

  1. PHP ext dlls are missing for msodbcsql which are

php_pdo_sqlsrv_56_ts.dll and php_sqlsrv_56_ts.dll

I already added this dll's and referenced them accordingly base on this document Configure via ini settings

  1. Now the uncertainty that msodbcsql is installed in Azure.

Now this is what I am having problem with.

So in my case in number 2 I tried copying the installer to Azure D:/home/

and run this in the command line

msiexec /quiet /passive /qn /i msodbcsql.msi IACCEPTMSODBCSQLLICENSETERMS=YES ADDLOCAL=ALL

which is suppose to install the .msi installer but i always get an

ACCESS IS DENIED

error.

is there another way around??

Basically Azure has already set up extension php_sqlsrv.dll & php_pdo_sqlsrv.dll for us, so we ourselves do not need to install any driver to connect SQL SERVER.

You could check the php.ini file which can be found at D:\local\Config\PHP-<version>\php.ini with Kudu console to confirm that.

Also, you can check that with phpinfo() function in your application.

And I have tested it with the following lines of code and got it worked.

<?php
$serverName = "serverName\sqlexpress"; //serverName\instanceName
$connectionInfo = array( "Database"=>"dbName", "UID"=>"userName", "PWD"=>"password");
$conn = sqlsrv_connect( $serverName, $connectionInfo);

if( $conn ) {
     echo "Connection established.<br />";
}else{
     echo "Connection could not be established.<br />";
     die( print_r( sqlsrv_errors(), true));
}
?>
