# ODBCDriverManager

When running on Linux or UNIX platforms, Media Server requires the unixODBC Driver Manager in order to connect to a MySQL or PostgreSQL database server. The `ODBCDriverManager` parameter sets the path to the unixODBC Driver Manager shared object file. For more information about this file, refer to the unixODBC documentation on http://www.unixodbc.org/.

Set this parameter if:

- Media Server is running on a Linux or UNIX platform
- the DatabaseType parameter is set to `postgres` or `mysql`

Type: | String
Default: | None
Required: | Only if DatabaseType is set to `postgres` or `mysql` and Media Server is running on Linux or UNIX
Configuration Section: | Database
Example: | `ODBCDriverManager=libodbc.so`
