does know of best solution connect old 2008 sql server? yeah, know it’s old. i’ve been looking sql-server-adapter gem, targeting 4.1.x it’s not quite there. running rails 4.2.6 , ruby 2.2.5.
i've tried using activerecord-sqlserver-adapter 4.1.2 thought best option. can connect fine, when attempting first record, or record matter, doesn't return active record object.
i've tried loop it, says can't [] of nil class. if yaml::dump(theobject.first) spits out string \n breaks record.
i feel there's missing, though i've followed tutorials , using bare minimum necessary connect.
it's first time we've tried connecting mssql rails it's rather new. nothing connecting mongo or postgres or mysql. lol.
seems stackoverflow consensus "don't". there 2 similar questions kind of give answer, both it's not easy or straightforward.

references question: rails & mssql 2008 - hit barriers? advocates jruby , says it's pain.
