I have activerecord-sybase-adapter installed -- and Sybase itself, so I have the drivers.
In irb or in the rails console, this works: ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection( :adapter => “sybase”, :database => “mydb”, :host => “myhost”, :myport => myport, :username => “read_only”, :password => “read_only”) In Rails, I have this in my database.yml: pacs: adapter: sybase database: mydb username: read_only password: read_only host: myhost port: myport And then I have the following model: class PacsPatient < ActiveRecord::Base establish_connection "pacs" set_table_name "patient" set_primary_key "pat_ckey" end So, when I go to the console and try to do something like.. >> PacsPatient.find 1 #<Class:0x481a610>: connect failed from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i386-msvcrt/sybct.rb:27:in `connect' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i386-msvcrt/sybct.rb:27:in `open' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i386-msvcrt/sybsql.rb:269:in `initialize' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-sybase-adapter-1.0.0.9250/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/sybase_adapter.rb:46:in `new' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-sybase-adapter-1.0.0.9250/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/sybase_adapter.rb:46:in `sybase_connection' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb:223:in `send' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb:223:in `new_connection' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb:245:in `checkout_new_connection' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb:188:in `checkout' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb:184:in `loop' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb:184:in `checkout' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/monitor.rb:242:in `synchronize' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb:183:in `checkout' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb:98:in `connection' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb:326:in `retrieve_connection' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb:123:in `retrieve_connection' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb:115:in `connection' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/base.rb:3103:in `quoted_table_name' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/base.rb:1583:in `find_one' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/base.rb:1574:in `find_from_ids' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.2/lib/active_record/base.rb:616:in `find' from (irb):1>> So it seems that I'm doing something wrong..
