I want to connect to a sql server 2005/db with ODBC through ruby using windows authentication. I have the gems dbi-0.4.1 and dbd-odbc-0.2.4 installed. What do I need to do for a connection string? So far I haven’t been able to get it to work.
DBI.connect(‘DBI:ODBC:Data Source=#{server};Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=#{db}’)
It appears after you specify DBI:DriverName: you can put whatever connection info you need
DBI.connect(‘DBI:ODBC:Driver={SQL Server};Server=#{server};Database=#{db};Trusted_Connection=yes’)
