Hi,
I'm new to web2py and trying to test the connectivity to Sybase.
I tried testing this on Linux:
>>> db = DAL('sybase://myuserid:mypswd@mysybaseserver/mydbname')
 
(please note that I used dummay names in the above statement, but the 
correct ones when testing.)
 
I got the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/svc_imagine_dev/web/web2py/gluon/packages/dal/pydal/base.py", 
line 171, in __call__
    obj = super(MetaDAL, cls).__call__(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/home/svc_imagine_dev/web/web2py/gluon/packages/dal/pydal/base.py", 
line 457, in __init__
    raise RuntimeError("Failure to connect, tried %d times:\n%s" % 
(attempts, tb))
RuntimeError: Failure to connect, tried 5 times:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/svc_imagine_dev/web/web2py/gluon/packages/dal/pydal/base.py", 
line 435, in __init__
    self._adapter = ADAPTERS[self._dbname](**kwargs)
  File 
"/home/svc_imagine_dev/web/web2py/gluon/packages/dal/pydal/adapters/base.py", 
line 53, in __call__
    obj = super(AdapterMeta, cls).__call__(*args, **kwargs)
  File 
"/home/svc_imagine_dev/web/web2py/gluon/packages/dal/pydal/adapters/mssql.py", 
line 465, in __init__
    self.find_driver(adapter_args, uri)
  File 
"/home/svc_imagine_dev/web/web2py/gluon/packages/dal/pydal/adapters/base.py", 
line 187, in find_driver
    raise RuntimeError("no driver available %s" % str(self.drivers))
RuntimeError: no driver available Sybase
Questions:
1. Where can I find the Sybase driver? (we are using Adaptive Server 
Enterprise/15.7)
2. Where should it be installed?
3. Once I have the correct driver, is there anything else I need to do to 
test the connection?
 
Thanks,
EF
