Hi

I am new to this group so excuse me if it has been covered many times (I
did a search but cant find much).

I have some PHP scripts that uses PDO as the database connection
method. I used PDO because of its multi database connection system. It
is working great at a number of sites using MYSQL but I am now trying to
use it with Firebird.

I have setup IIS and installed PHP / PDO / Firebird extension (PHP
5.3). PhpInfo shows everything is running. In my scripts I should be
able to change the connection string and it should be done, however my
connection string just wont work.

my connection script is as follows

$dbh = new
PDO("firebird:dbname=localhost:C:\\ReportDB\\reports.fdb", "SYSDBA",
"masterkey");

With this I get a 'HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error'. I have tried it
without the double slashes and it no longer fails but returns NULL.
Actually I have tried just about everything I can think of and no go !!

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Thanks
Rob
