Hi there,

This may not be the best list for my question, but I'm sure someone there will 
he able to help me
;-)

I'm trying to use dbi-link under RHEL5.3. Using PostgreSQL and Perl rpms from 
distro, installed
Sybase ASE 1.5.5 developers edition and DBD::Sybase using cpan -i.

My test programs, using pubs2 example database, work fine. They connect as:

$dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Sybase:server=RHEL53I386", "teste", "123testando");

So I have a working DBD::Sybase install. But then I try to initialize dbi-link 
using the statement:

SELECT make_accessor_functions(
    'dbi:Sybase:server=RHEL53I386',
    'teste',
    '123testando',
    '---
AutoCommit: 1
RaiseError: 1
',
    NULL,
    NULL,
    NULL,
    'pubs2'
);

I get the error (from postgresql logs)

OpenClient message: LAYER = (7) ORIGIN = (2) SEVERITY = (6) NUMBER = (6)
Message String: ct_con_alloc(): unable to get layer message string: unable to ge
t origin message string: error string not available

            'teste',

            1
        )

tion: DBI connect('server=RHEL53I386','teste',...) failed: (no error string) at 
line 137 at line 36. at line 53.

I already tried forcing my database to en_US.UTF-8 and sourced SYBASE.sh from 
postgres bash_profile
script. Before that, the error was aboit missing dynamic libs.

I know this looks more a sybase thing than a postgresql thing but maybe someone 
can understand the
sybase error message and help me. After all I hope someone out there does use 
dbi-link
