Hi I'm trying to use the activerecord-sybase-adapter to be able to use ASE with my rails applications. But, I am struggling...
I followed (most of) the steps on this informative page: http://trevoke.net/blog/2009/09/11/connecting-to-sybase-with-rails-on-windows-xp/ Initially I had Rails 2.3.5 installed. I copied the "Ruby Sybase files" as instructed and the Sybase dll files as well, and I installed activerecord-sybase-adapter (1.0.0.9250). The Sybase environment I already have on my office computer, so it should be allright. I don't have the mentioned JDBC_HOME setting or the classpath setting, but I'm using Open Client, so should there be any need for the JDBC settings? Ok, things looked promising, and I started creating a test rails app. rails testapp I then edited the database.yml to fit Sybase ASE development: adapter: sybase database: testdb username: username password: password host: sauron The host, sauron, is defined in the sql.ini file. Running rake db:create tells me that the database testdb already exists. (true) ruby script\generate scaffold person first_name:string last_name:string WORKS OK rake db:migrate --trace FAILS!

In mysql_adapter.rb there is a select_row function, but not in the sybase_adapter.rb. I tried downgrading Rails to 2.1.0 because I read somewhere that the activerecord-sybase-adapter perhaps was not working for the latest Rails releases, but got only a slightly different error message: rake aborted! select_rows is an abstract method c:/prg/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.0/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/database_statements.rb:34:in `select_rows' ... Anyone has an idea? Best regards, Rolf -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
