Configure phpgrid with firebird

Question

How can I configure phpgrid to connect with firebird database?

I have to edit the conf.php file, but don't know how to configure it for Firebird..

Answer 1

try this:

I would build and test a ODBC connection for the firebird database (for windows have a look at this site to get an idea: http://web.synametrics.com/firebird.htm ).

the conf.php file would be something like this:

define('PHPGRID_DB_HOSTNAME','hostname'); // hostname = your odbc connection name
define('PHPGRID_DB_USERNAME', 'username'); // database user name
define('PHPGRID_DB_PASSWORD', 'password'); // database password
define('PHPGRID_DB_NAME', 'sampledb'); // database name
define('PHPGRID_DB_TYPE', 'odbc'); // database type = odbc for "generic odbc" or try ibase
define('PHPGRID_DB_CHARSET','utf8'); // OPTIONAL. Leave blank to use the default charset

Answer 2

If you try using this php datagrid library , it use PDO and connect smoothly with firebird.
