RE: [PHP-DB] Connection to AS/400.

Marc, OpenLink's MT ODBC can talk to a local DB2 Connect on Linux, so you are able to use odbc_functions to get to the DB/2 on AS/400 in a fairly straightforward manner. If you run into problems let me know, or open a free support case at http://www.openlinksw.com/support/suppindx.htm Best regards, Andrew Hill Director of Technology Evangelism OpenLink Software http://www.openlinksw.com Universal Data Access & Data Integration Technology Providers > -----Original Message----- > From: Marc Grober [mailto:mgrober@AHFC.STATE.AK.US] > Sent: Tuesday, May 08, 2001 1:46 PM > To: php-db@lists.php.net > Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Connection to AS/400. > > > I was wrestling with this for a while..... > There is a db2 distribution for linux from IBM > There was some extensive discussion on the list in February > and March of this past year, including a set of files from > Alessandro Grigiante and compiling php with --with-ibm-db2=<path> > (i.e. using db2 instead of odbc, though some may argue thats out > of the frying pan and into the fire?????) > I ended up putting our project on hold for a bit (as I think did Zvi) > but I would be very interested to hear any details concerning > use of odbc or ibm-db2 to talk to db2-400 > > Andrew Hill wrote: > > > You still need a driver for PHP to use > > with the Driver Manager, however, and there is not currently an > ODBC driver > > that will talk to AS/400 directly. > > > > > -- > PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-db-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-db-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net > >
