New to rails. Installed rails on my XP desktop, and setup my first app
that will use an existing SQLServer database. I am able to connect to
SQLServer using odbc with following code.
require ‘rubygems’
require ‘ActiveRecord’
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
:adapter => ‘sqlserver’,
:mode => ‘odbc’,
:dsn => ‘Driver={SQL Server};Server=;Database=’,
:username => ‘uid’,
:password => ‘pwd’
)
class src <ActiveRecord::Base
set_table_name ‘Source’
set_primary_key ‘IDSource’
end
s = []
s = Source.find(1)
puts s.SourceName
I was able to connect and the code behaves as expected. However when I
try to use database.yml to specify the same connection information, I am
unable to connect using script/dbconsole.
#database.yml
development:
adapter : sqlserver
mode : odbc
dsn : Driver={SQL Server};Server=;Database=
username :
password :
When I start script/dbconsole, the error is
D:\work\rails\job>ruby script/dbconsole
Unknown command-line client for . Submit a Rails patch to add
support!
My assumption is that my database.yml does not describe the connection
properly, since I am able to connect directly using establish_connection
method. Is there any documentation on how to specify a odbc connection
in yml for rails?
Here is the list of installed gems ::
