sql.h not found when installing PyODBC on Heroku

Question

I\'m trying to install PyODBC on Heroku, but I get fatal error: sql.h: No such file or directory in the logs when pip runs. How do I fix this error?

Answer 1

You need the unixODBC devel package. I don't know what distro you are using but you can google it and build from source.
