[URGENT] An error occurred while installing tiny_tds (2.1.7), and Bundler cannot continue in Ruby-3.2.1

Hi Team I am trying to install tiny_tds (2.1.7) with Ruby-3.2.1 but its getting failed: An error occurred while installing tiny_tds (2.1.7), and Bundler cannot continue. Even trying to install separately its getting below error: gem install tiny_tds Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing tiny_tds: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

Do you have FreeTDS 0.95.80 or higher installed? extconf.rb failed Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more details. You may need configuration options.

To see why this extension failed to compile, please check the mkmf.log which can be found here:

/.rvm/gems/ruby-3.2.1/extensions/x86_64-darwin-22/3.2.0/tiny_tds-2.1.7/mkmf.log

extconf failed, exit code 1

Its blocking in Production env for Ruby-3.2.1 up-gradation, please check.

the error message states quite clearly what you need to do to fix this error:

Failed! Do you have FreeTDS 0.95.80 or higher installed?

since it appears that you are on Mac, you can get it from homebrew: brew install freetds.
