I install python packages to my user root directory since I can't install it to the root directory due to security issues.

The python package (pyobdc) is looking for /usr/local/lib/libmsodbcsql.13.dylib which doesn't exist there but it exists at /Users/Max/usr/local/lib/libmsodbcsql.13.dylib.

I wanted to create a syslink but of course I ran into the same issue which is permissions to root.

How can I make the package (Installed in a Django project) point to the user root?

  • Just add `/Users/Max/usr/local/lib` to your python environment path. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1681208/python-platform-independent-way-to-modify-path-environment-variable – Ghoti Jul 28 '21 at 22:29
  • The package is still looking for the same location. `'/usr/local/lib/libmsodbcsql.13.dylib' : file not found (0) (SQLDriverConnect)")` – Hossam Mohamed Jul 28 '21 at 22:38

    Can you check that you added your directory in front of the system's directory? Many places add to the end by default, which wouldn't work for this. – Joshua Snider Jul 29 '21 at 06:34
