ODBC Error: dyld: Symbol not found: _SQLConf [ reply ]  
2008-01-13 09:44
Hi all,

I am trying to use DBI to connect from OS X to a SQL Server Database running under Windows XP. When trying the following in irb:

require 'rubygems'
require 'dbi'
DBI.connect('DBI:ODBC:MY_DAN', 'sa', 'password')

I get the following error:

dyld: NSLinkModule() error
dyld: Symbol not found: _SQLConfigDataSource
Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i686-darwin8.10.1/
odbc.bundle
Expected in: flat namespace
Trace/BPT trap

And irb crashes out and I'm thrown back on to the command line. I can connect to the SQL Server database from tsql and iodbctest, so that's
working fine. Just not able to do so from DBI. Has anyone else had this problem and could possibly shed some light on what a solution may be?

Thank you.

Regards,
Diego
