Hi,

Are there any known issues with mssql driver in agent for windows server 2022?

I am migrating servers and exact same config and agent version fail on new server with error [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

logs from old server with windows server 2016

agent config:
DebugLevel = 6
LogFile = C:\NetXMS\log\log.txt
MasterServers = *.*.*.*
ConfigIncludeDir = C:\NetXMS\etc\nxagentd.conf.d
FileStore = C:\NetXMS\var
SubAgent = winperf.nsm

SubAgent = dbquery.nsm
*DBQUERY
Database = id=db1;driver=mssql.ddr;server=server;dbname=db;login=user;password=pwd
I tried latest agent version and same issue.

I have tried adding ODBC DSN same issue

Moved SQL queries to use ExternalMetric instead more control over connections and errors that way so in general better way so far.

Most likely you have to install SQL Server Native Client which is needed for mssql.ddr to work.
