Where is the mythical activerecord-sybase-adapter

Hello,

I just migrated to Rails 2.0.1 and now it demands a "activerecord- sybase-adapter" to work with my sybase db.

ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.0.1/lib/active_record/ connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb:231:in `establish_connection': Please install the sybase adapter: `gem install activerecord-sybase-adapter` (no such file to load -- active_record/connection_adapters/sybase_adapter) (RuntimeError)         from ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.0.1/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb: 215:in `establish_connection'         from ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.0.1/lib/ active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_specification.rb: 208:in `establish_connection'         from ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.0.1/lib/ initializer.rb:234:in `initialize_database'         from ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.0.1/lib/ initializer.rb:94:in `process'         from ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.0.1/lib/ initializer.rb:49:in `send'         from ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.0.1/lib/ initializer.rb:49:in `run'         from railsapp/public/../config/environment.rb:13         from railsapp/public/dispatch.fcgi:21:in `require'         from railsapp/public/dispatch.fcgi:21

For my previous rails version 1.2.4, I had compiled the sybase adapter by following http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowToSetupSybaseAdapterOnRails and everything was running fine.

I have been looking for the gem activerecord-sybase-adapter everywhere but to no avail.

Could someone please point me to the gem.

Many Thanks, Aman

I have a patch for this adapter: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10629 What will happen with this? It deals with a production issue. Do I need to put it in some other trac? Also, can someone please take a look at http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/8400 It implements the reconnect() method for the adapter. It might need to be moved to the same place as mine. It definitely needs to be tested to see if it's ready for prime time.
