Hi All, Is anyone successfully using ROR 2.x with Firebird 2.x in a production environment? The support seems to have dwindled. I would greatly appreciate any installation guidelines, comments or tips. What is somewhat confusing is what is required to for ROR to play nicely with firebird. I have come across fireruby, fb_adapter, fb-0.5.9...there does not seem to be cohesive install / requirement steps...I certainly don''t mind working through all this but would appreciate any help to nudge me along. Thanks, Rick -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

And as you can see there was no answers for that. But, after some trial and error I managed to get it to work. Before I posted the thread asking for help, I went through the following tutorial http://mapopa.blogspot.com/2009/02/installing-firebird-active-record-for.html, but I did not get it to work, and that is when I got that error message. But, I found out what was missing. I installed it under Ubuntu Linux, and first I made sure that libfbclient.so was in /usr/lib. In other words, if you installed from the repository, then make sure that you install firebird-dev. I always install from the archives. Next, you do the following: 1) install fb-0.5.9 2) install fb_adapter 3) go to the folder where fb-0.5.9 is (in my case it is under /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/fb-0.5.9), and do a sudo make install. That should install fb-0.5.9. That''s it, you can now follow the rest of the tutorial from http://mapopa.blogspot.com/2009/02/installing-firebird-active-record-for.html Migrations aren''t yet working. Good luck!

I am working on the code to add support for migrations, and will share that as well soon. Right now, I am able to do some migrations, but I still have to do a fair bit of testing. I am not really a Ruby expert, so it takes a little more time, because I have to read about certain features. Anyway, I will share after I finish. All the best, Fidel. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
