How to connect Ruby to SQL Server Management Studio?

Question

I've been trying to connect my Ruby on Rails web app to my SQL Server database, I've looked everywhere on the internet especially Stack Overflow and can't seem to get it to work, even tried odbc. Any ideas/ things I can do to make it work?

try a dlib connection with the activerecord-sqlserver-adapter gem:

development:
  adapter: sqlserver
  mode: dblib
  database: sqlserverdatabase
  host: host
  port: port
  username: username
  password: password
