So the PHP odbc_connect() method seems to connect, because I get SQL errors.

Can anyone tell me how to at least select from these tables.. I created them using isql like this:

USE studies;

CREATE TABLE studies ( …);

But the following variations give SQL errors:

USE studies; SELECT * FROM studies;

SELECT * FROM studies.studies;

SELECT * FROM studies..studies;

SELECT * FROM DB.studies;

SELECT * FROM DB.studies.studies;

To keep working, I made a mirror of these tables in MySQL and so that’s what I am working with now. I am already past my deadline.

As a last resort I might end up setting up a PHP ARC –based SPARQL endpoint and dumping to that, periodically from the tables. But that won’t scale and has other limitations.

But I kinda feel not so good. I got excited reading about Virtuoso and now everyone’s looking at me. We’re looking at possibly moving a lot over to it, including VIVO (researchers and their publications—currently using Sesame/Jena), a huge clinical data repository, and others.

I feel so close to breaking the egg-shell that can open up a huge new world of uses.. but also stressed with a very short timeline.


You qualify your SQL Data in Virtuoso using:

<qualifier>.<owner>.<object e.g. Table, View, Procedure> .

A good ODBC abstraction to use an ODBC meta data call do discern Qualifier Term etc..

Virtuoso:

SELECT * FROM DB..studies

Notice two dots not one.
