I am testing ADS and I fail to connect using php. Actually they cannot use the client on the Linux machine the web server is running. The php module is installed
php -i | grep -i adv

and in the manual we find this example http://devzone.advantagedatabase.com/dz/webhelp/Advantage11/index.html?php_advantage_pdo_driver.htm
<?PHP
$pdoDBH = new PDO( "advantage:Data Source=//server:6262/share/;ServerType=Remote;" );
$pdoDBH->setAttribute( PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION );
$pdostmtStatement = $pdoDBH->query( "select * from testtable" );
$iNumRows = $pdostmtStatement->rowCount();
$aArray = $pdostmtStatement->fetchAll( PDO::FETCH_ASSOC );
print_r( $aArray );
$pdostmtStatement->closeCursor();
$pdoDBH = null;
?>
where we should change the server address and provide credentials. The ADS server is version 9 running on a windows machine and if I use this
79.129.39.53c\webdata\DATA\LIS.add
username : adssys
password: labadmin
I can connect from either the machine the server is running or another windows machine, but not from linux
it is an old version because there is a potential customer who has already built an application on this version and requests to prove him php connectivity, however I can only download latest clients.
1) I suppose since client 11 is connecting from windows it can also connect from Linux
2)need help to configure php, I am afraid I am not well aware of either php and ADS and probably I am asking something really trivial
Thank you in advance
