Installation with MS SQL server extension under Debian 9

[SIZE=11px]Hello,
I installed a fresh Debian 9 server and following the help for manual installation

http://www.scriptcase.net/docs/en_us/v9/manual/02-scriptcase-installation/06-linux_php/

I need to install the mssql db extension, as per above doc

“apt-get install php7.0-mssql” [/SIZE]

[SIZE=11px]but the package does not exist (it seems that mssql extension was removed from php7 ?)
Anyone could point me in the right direction ?

Best Regards
Federico[/SIZE]

I understood the “automatic” installation comes with PDO DBLIB installed and enabled , and I need to configure correctly FreeTDS.
The documentation about this topic is really poor.
Could anybody help about this ?

Thanks
Federico

Ciao Giorgio,
thanks for the tip.
It worked. Just for info in case you need, with SC8.1 I used the MSSQL library and needed to use the " sign in every select. With PDO you need to convert to single quote. It has to be done in every select field, and in every select I use in internal library I wrote. It is feasible, but it is boring :slight_smile:
