Do you really need tds_encoding?
Perhaps deleting this dependency from your mix.exs file solves the problem.

You need to install Rust. Apparently the library has a Rust native part.
VincentBlackdot
so i have included it and landed another error

Per the README, make sure you’ve included
{:tds_encoding, "~> 1.0"}in your dependencies inmix.exs- just setting the configuration without installing the package would produce exactly the error above.dimitarvp
Better open a new thread. Also post more code and show what have you tried (including library version). Generic questions are usually not answered so please make sure you include some details.
VincentBlackdot
although its generated a new error
tds module not being available

i forgot to enable tcp from sql cong file thanks

Connection refused means that nobody is listening on port 1433. Have you double checked this?
