SQL IM002 Errors while connecting to SQL Server from perl on heroku

Question

I have a perl application hosted on heroku which needs to connect with some sql server. I am unable to establish connection. It fails with following error:

DBI connect('Driver={ODBC Driver 11 For SQL Server}; Server=****; UID=****; PWD=****','',...) failed: [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data source name not found, and no default driver specified (SQL-IM002) at work.pl line 12.

This is the code.

work.pl

use strict;
use warnings;

use DBI;


my $DRIVER = '{ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server}';
my $SERVER = '****';
my $UID = '****';
my $PWD = '****';

my $x = DBI->connect("dbi:ODBC:Driver=$DRIVER; Server=$SERVER; UID=$UID; PWD=$PWD");

Am I missing something?

Answer 1

Tried everything and found the reason. It should be dbd:ODBC:DRIVER instead of dbd:ODBC:Driver.
