Hi everyone, I am starting a new project and the back-end database is a Progress OpenEdge db. Has anyone used ruby/rails with such a database. Are there any drivers that i can use to connect to OpenEdge? Any input is appreciated.

Hi Oh gosh , where to begin!!!! The long and short of it is I have been trying for months to get it to work on Linux. I managed to get it to work on Windows with instant rails and the merant driver but its sllllloooow. Openedge comes up "Unsupported database " on linux but Progress 9.1E on linux has a chance if you can recompile the gcc lib file for the 9.1E merant driver. (Very very difficult as the gcc lib is the backbone of linux) So far I have had little or no sucess and I think the answer is to try Jruby with the JDBC connection .. but good luck with that . I tried it and its just as bad.... Java has all its nice littel quirks like JAVA_PATH ect etc Regards Robby On Feb 4, 5:33 pm, jhn Vln <rails-mailing-l...-ARtvInVfO7ksV2N9l4h3zg@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Hi everyone, > > I am starting a new project and the back-end database is a ProgressOpenEdgedb. > Has anyone used ruby/rails with such a database.
