Offering my $0.02, it looks like a problem with your adapter. Forgive me if you've already seen this, but are you using the <a href="http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/SybaseASA" rel="nofollow">sybase anywhere adapter</a> from the wiki.rubyonrails site? If not, I'd suggest trying it out and then trying to connect again. Hey binkly,

I've followed your outlined steps and running basic tests works, but from within Rails I get the following error: `establish_connection':ActiveRecord::AdapterNotFound: database configuration specifies nonexistent sybase adapter If I set the adapter name to sqlserver everything starts up fine, but hangs when I try to do any ActiveRecord activity. Do you know if there are special instructions for setting up FreeTDS to work with Sybase and rails? Thanks, Hello, I’m writing to ask if you have any experience connecting to a Sybase DB with Rails.

If I set the adapter name to sqlserver everything starts up fine, but hangs when I try to do any ActiveRecord activity.

Do you know if there are special instructions for setting up FreeTDS to work with Sybase and rails?

Thanks,
