I'm trying to connect my Catalyst app to a MS SQL server 2005. I have
DBIx::Class loaded and I went through the documentation, but I can't
seem to get the right connection string. Would someone be able to point
out my mistake and suggest the proper connection string?
Here is the info from my .conf file.
schema_class WebTest::Schema
dsn dbi:odbc:WebTestODBC
userWebGuy
password webtest

M/Model::DB>
I have created an ODBC connection called WebTestODBC on the machine
hosting the MSSQL server.
I have also tried the above with a change to the dsn:
dsn dbi:MSSQL:WebTestODBC
But I always get the same error:
DBIx::Class::ResultSet::first(): DBI Connection failed: Can't connect to
data source 'HASH(0x43477e8)' because I can't work out what driver to
use (it doesn't seem to contain a 'dbi:driver:' prefix and the
DBI_DRIVER env var is not set) at
C:/Perl/site/lib/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm line 839
This suggests that it is not reading the properly and
instead is looking at the entire thing as a hash. I don't know how to
get around this. I don't even know if it is the right assumption.
Also, in my \Model\DB.pm I have the following code I took from the
Catalyst tutorial and modified. I'm not sure if I should just remove it
or what.
__PACKAGE__->config(
schema_class => 'WebTest::Schema',
connect_info => [
'dbi:odbc:WebTestODBC',
],
);
