RE: [PHP-DB] Troubles in ODBC Land

Jonathan, You should be getting some errors if the odbc_connect is failing - what are they? Typical problems include forgetting to set ODBCINI and LD_LIBRARY_PATH envrionment variables in your script (via putenv(); ) Also, you may wish to use --with-iodbc instead of --with-unixodbc - it comes with diagnostic tools such as odbctest.
