Sorry. I meant to say Leopard, not Ubuntu.
I am running a test script that lists the drivers and then connects to list the
tables. I get this:
$ perl testdbi.pl
Driver: DBM
Driver: ExampleP
Driver: File
Driver: Gofer
Driver: ODBC
Driver: Proxy
Driver: Sponge
DBI connect('Driver={SQL
Server};Server=database.domain.com;Database=MyDB','readonly',...) failed:
[iODBC][Driver Manager]Specified driver could not be loaded (SQL-IM003) [state
was IM003 now 00000]
[iODBC][Driver Manager]dlopen({SQL Server}, 6): image not found (SQL-00000) at
testdbi.pl line 14
Can't connect to DBI:ODBC:Driver={SQL
Server};Server=database.domain.com;Database=MyDB: [iODBC][Driver

00000]

testdbi.pl line 14.
Thanks,

Subject: Perl DBI on Mac OS X
[...] I am new to Perl DBI. I have it working fine on my Windows 7 box.
I have installed the module on Ubuntu and tried running the same test script
but get a connection error:
Your subject line says 'MacOS X'; your comment here says 'Ubuntu'. AFAIK,
those are not synonyms.
Which platform are you actually having the problems on?
DBI connect('Driver={SQL Server};Server=[dsn];Database=[db]','[pwd]',...)
failed: [iODBC][Driver
Manager]Specified driver could not be loaded (SQL-IM003) [state was IM003 now
00000]

Do I need to install another module? Or configure ODBC?
Can you write a pure ODBC program that connects to your database? If so, what
DSN do you use to connect?
If not, concentrate on configuring ODBC correctly. Do you have an ODBC driver
for your DBMS installed?
Is your DBMS running on your Ubuntu (MacOS X) box or out on a Windows box?
