Environment

To diagnose, we usually need to know the following, including version numbers. On Windows, be sure to specify 32-bit Python or 64-bit:

• Python: 3.9
• pyodbc: latest
• OS: ubuntu 20.04
• DB:mssql
• driver:

Issue

Im using this notebook and tried to connect with remote MSSQL server, and ok with pip install pyodbc. But cannot connect to database and pyodbc.drivers() shows me empty [ ]

Have you installed the ODBC driver for SQL Server as described here?

[b-y-f]

Not sure, but in for other project in js with the help of mssql, we can connect to db without any issue.

Python is not JavaScript, and pyODBC is a generic ODBC interface. Please read the documentation.
