Got it. There's a small issue with sqlserver_adapter.rb and the way
Micrsoft Azure advertises it's version.
There is a database_year function that tries to determine the version of
SQL Server from the output of the following query:
"SELECT @@version"
For Non Azure SQL Server databases, the output is similar to the
following:
"Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (SP1) - 10.0.2531.0 (Intel X86) ..<blah
blah>"
the database_year funtion grabs the SQL Server version from the 4 digits
following the word "Microsoft SQL Server":
DATABASE_VERSION_REGEXP = /Microsoft SQL Server\s+(\d{4})/
def database_year
DATABASE_VERSION_REGEXP.match(database_version)[1].to_i
end
In Azure, however, the query returns a different string:
"Microsoft SQL Azure (RTM) - 10.25.9386.0 ..<blah blah>"
That database_year function, as a result returns a nil string and
breaks. As a test, I just changed the function to:
def database_year
2008
end
and I was able to connect my rails application to SQL Azure. There just
needs to be a smarter way to ascertain the SQL Server version. Possible
match up the 10.XX version number with the SQL Server 2005/2008 etc
versions.
Thanks very much for the help.
