Hi, I am trying to connect to a SQL Server 7.0 DB from a Linux box using Ruby DBI & ODBC. 1. ruby -v ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13 patchlevel 0) [i686-linux] 2. ruby-odbc installed ok. ruby-odbc-0.9995> ruby test.rb dsn_name username password all tests ok! 3. DBI is properly installed. irb> require 'dbi' => true BUT, the following fails in the same irb session. irb> DBI.connect('dbi:ODBC:dsn_name', 'username', password') DBI::InterfaceError: Unable to load driver 'ODBC' ... What is missing? Or how can I track it down? Mysql works fine. I believe I set up the ODBC configuration correctly. I can access the SQL Server via isql command. Thanks.
