I am attempting to connect to an iseries running V54R. When I run a test in IRB it does not work: test is from (https://github.com/on-site/ibm_db)
irb(main):001:0> gem 'ibm_db' => true irb(main):002:0> require 'mswin32/ibm_db' => true irb(main):003:0> IBM_DB.connect 'sample', 'db2admin', 'secret' ArgumentError: uncaught throw :"Allocation of environment handle failed: <error message could not be retrieved>" from (irb):3:in `connect' from (irb):3 from c:/Ruby192/bin/irb:12:in `<main>' irb(main):004:0>
the gem list command gives the following output
*** LOCAL GEMS ***
activerecord (3.2.13, 3.2.12, 3.2.8, 3.2.8.rc2, 3.2.6, 1.15.6) ibm_db (2.5.11 x86-mingw32)
I have installed the DB2 drivers on my Windows 7 64bit PC. I also have the following in my path C:\PROGRA~2\IBM\SQLLIB\BIN;
Any idea what I can check here?
