Answer 1

Your ODBC connection string in incorrect, your first parameter specifies a datasource called "ODBC", which you haven't configured in your operating system/odbc manager.
So either you should configure a data source with the given parameters like UID=sa;PWD=sa123; Connection Driver=TDS;Database=ReportServer; Server=192.168.1.52;Port=1433; with the corresponding ODBC data source manager/linux administration program, with a useable name like "local_test_db" and just use "DSN=local_test_db" as your connection string
or (exclusive or)
remove the "dsn=ODBC" part from your connection string and try it again with "UID=sa;PWD=sa123; Connection Driver=TDS;Database=ReportServer; Server=192.168.1.52;Port=1433;"
