Can you please provide some solution if you have or else it would be helpful if you could give other way to install pymssql in centos7

回答1:

You need to install freetds-devel (yum install freetds-devel), most likely available in EPEL.

回答2:

File sqlfront.h is provided by freetds-devel. Ensure this is installed
