Hello.
I'm a new CI user.
I want to use it in a couple of project I have to do in this day.
A problem....
I HAVE TO USE FIREBIRD for this.
I try the driver found in the forum and ODBC connection without success.
Can someone help me?
ODBC Entry
DSN Name: Blog
Database C:\BLOG.FDB
Clien DLL C:\Programmi\Firebird\Firebird_2_0\bin\fbclient.dll
User: SYSDBA
Password: masterkey
Connection TEST Succesfull
This is my database.php config...
$active_group = "default";
$active_record = TRUE;
$db['default']['hostname'] = "localhost";
$db['default']['username'] = "";
$db['default']['password'] = "";
$db['default']['database'] = "Blog";
$db['default']['dbdriver'] = "odbc";
$db['default']['dbprefix'] = "";
$db['default']['pconnect'] = TRUE;
$db['default']['db_debug'] = TRUE;
$db['default']['cache_on'] = FALSE;
$db['default']['cachedir'] = "";
$db['default']['char_set'] = "utf8";
$db['default']['dbcollat'] = "utf8_general_ci";
What's wrong?
Thanks all in advance.

What's the problem? Are you getting some kind of error? Have you checked your log file?

Hi, instead of
$db[‘default’][‘hostname’] = “localhost”;
try to use:
$db[‘default’][‘hostname’] = “Blog”;
And I'm afraid you have to inform user + password files...
