configure: error: unixODBC library "odbcinst" not found

Could anyone help me to resolve this issue?

And I see odbc is installed in the server. For the command “odbc_config –libs”, I get the output “-L/usr/lib –lodbc”

Am new to this forum and sorry if this question is already raised and resolved in this forum.

Thanks & Regards,
