Informix, IIS and Perl… a frustrating combination

by mike . Updated 20 years, 1 month ago

I have spent the dat trying to get Informix to work on an IIS box. I normal work in a Linux/Unix enviornment so admittedly it is probably easy for someone who know windows/iis.

I have tried using ppm (Perl package Manager) and cpan to get the package on, but the best I have managed to accomplish is to get the ODBC DBI module installed without error.

Can anyone tell me what I need to make the Informix module install and not fail or what I am doing wrong with my DBI connection to the Informix DB using the ODBC module.

my $dbh = DBI->connect(“DBI:ODBC:database=xxx;host=xxx.xxx.xxx,username=xxx,password=xxx”);

I am probably in the wrong place, or have crossed too many topics, but searching and hunting for help/forum solutions have churned up nothing, so now time to start posting around.

cheers
