On my Windows 7 box, I've installed Ruby 1.9.2, and installed the following gems:
* LOCAL GEMS *
- dbd-mysql (0.4.4)
- dbi (0.4.5)
- deprecated (2.0.1)
- httparty (0.8.1)
- rubygems-update (1.8.15)
(I did this using gem install).
I have also written the following simple test harness:
require 'rubygems'
require 'dbi'
begin
dbh = DBI.connect("DBI:Mysql:test", "username", "pwd")
row = dbh.select_one("SELECT VERSION()")
puts "Server Version: "+row[0]
rescue DBI::DatabaseError => e
puts "An error occurred"
puts "Error code: #{e.err}"
puts "Error message: #{e.errstr}"
ensure
# disconnect from server
dbh.disconnect if dbh
end
Regardless of how I specify the connection string, I keep getting:
C:\Code\Concordance.SE>ruby test_sql.rb

}
What am I doing wrong?
