Tries to connect to Mysql instead of SQL Server

[ivanoats]

I don't know if this is an issue with the adapter or my code but I could definitely use some help if available.

Here's my db config:

development:
  adapter: mysql2
  encoding: utf8
  reconnect: false
  database: c4c_development
  pool: 5
  username: username
  password:
  host: localhost

ipp_v5:
  adapter: sqlserver
  host: host_name.washington.edu
  database: database_name
  username: somewhat_secret
  password: super_secret

Here's my class:

class BDP < ActiveRecord::Base

  establish_connection Rails.configuration.database_configuration["ipp_v5"]

  self.table_name = "Campaign"
  self.primary_key = "CAMPAIGNKEYGUID"
  alias_attribute "id", "CAMPAIGNKEYGUID"

  before_create :set_guid_column

  def set_guid_column
    self[:CAMPAIGNKEYGUID] ||= connection.newid_function
  end

  has_many :projects

end

BDP.find(:first) works.

I think the key to your problem may be what you have in Projects and the way you have things setup. Have you read the rails guide on multiple database connections? The way your using Rails.configuration is not right. Just pass a symbol to the yaml key for the connection name, in this case :ipp_v5.

Next, this is a bit of advice, never use establish connection like that in basic AR sub classes. This is a lesson that Rails tries to promote when dealing with multiple DB connections. This google thread and search for "it is always a good idea to have an abstract class that champions a connection/pool to another DB"

So basically you will have something like this.

module DTMF
  class Connection < ActiveRecord::Base
    establish_connection :dtmf_dev
    self.abstract_class = true
  end
end

module DTMF
  class SomeModel < DTML::Connection
    self.table_name = 'db_table_name'
    self.primary_key = 'view_unique_identifier'
  end
end

[ivanoats]

OK - we've reorganized the connections like you suggested, thanks.

BDP.offset(2) works now, we get a Arel object

BDP.offset(2).exists? errs with:

[2] pry(main)> ap BDP.offset(2).exists?

from /Users/ivan/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p125/gems/activerecord-3.2.2/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract_mysql_adapter.rb:243:in `query'

this issue seems related: activeadmin/activeadmin#1062

[metaskills]

It is and that issue spawned this issue #161 which was fixed in 3.2.1.

At this point I can not tell you why you are having that issue. I still believe it is something in your Projects model and/or the way you have things setup. You will have to provide some real context and more info if I am able to help.

[ivanoats]

Hi, thanks so much for looking at this and following up, again. It's really wonderful to have another eye on the problem.

I've already removed the belongs_to for Project, so I'm not sure how that could have an affect?

Regarding context, would you like to see the new structure of the models, as you suggested? or something else?

[metaskills]

No problem! And yes, if you are still having a problem. I would love to see the models.

[ivanoats]

OK - I created a brand new rails app, just to test this connection out. In this pastie is all the context:
http://pastie.org/3580103

Sorry, gist was acting weird just now. I'm pasting in the raw code below, but it's probably easier to read on pastie with syntax highlighting.

## app/legacy/legacy_connection.rb

class LegacyConnection < ActiveRecord::Base
  establish_connection :ipp
  self.abstract_class = true
end


## app/legacy/bdp.rb

class BDP < LegacyConnection
  self.table_name = 'Campaign'
  self.primary_key = 'CAMPAIGNKEYGUID'

  alias_attribute "id", "CAMPAIGNKEYGUID"
end

OK, now show me the code and stack trace that exercises the error. The one from above in previous comments does not seem to apply in this last paste.

[metalbot]

Was my issue with model.offset(2).exists? different from his? I pulled the latest source, added a test, and it was clearly failing, though mine was failing with a TinyTDS error, not with an ActiveRecord error. I think he's still going to run into this problem once he moves to the latest version. Apologies for jumping in on someone else's issue...

[ivanoats]

Yes, I still think it's a problem with offset.

Interesting, things are in our stack up to here.

https://github.com/rails-sqlserver/activerecord-sqlserver-adapter/blob/master/lib/arel/visitors/sqlserver.rb#L367

Which is calling #primary key on a found Arel table. The table returned comes from this table_from_select_statement method in our visitor.

https://github.com/rails-sqlserver/activerecord-sqlserver-adapter/blob/master/lib/arel/visitors/sqlserver.rb#L218

Perhaps it is getting this line Arel::Table.new(x, @engine) and either @eninge is nil or the approach is wrong for the current version of Arel. We have some notes there, can you do some debugging and let me know? Just a little bit to busy to dig into this now but would gladly take a patch or help till then. FWIW, we could test for this too using SQLite in our own test suite, maybe. Either way, let me know what you find out.

[metaskills]

Whoops, forgot to mention, the AR test suite has two connections. It would be easy to add a test for this and as @metalbot has said, he confirmed just that. So perhaps do some debugging for me in the context of this project and it's test suite which would get us to a patch faster.

[metalbot]

I can duplicate this problem in a quick application that I threw together:

1. Generate basic rails application (sqlite connection)
2. Add appropriate gems to Gemfile to support activerecord-sqlserver-adapter
3. Create a new entry in database.yml that points to a SQL Server database
4. Create an abstract connection class that inherits from ActiveRecord::Base and sets the connection to my SQL server entry.
5. Create a model that inherits from my connection class.
6. Fire up rails console
7. Model.offset(2) fails with identical error.

I've tried a couple of other permutations:

1. Make my development database another connection to the same database as the abstract connector. In this case, everything works fine.
2. Make my development database a connection to the activerecord_unittest database. In this case, Model.offset(3) fails with "object doesn't support #inspect"

I'll see if I can debug the problem, and that may help me produce a simpler failing unit test.

[ivanoats]

Thanks for chiming in! I am trying to use debug to see what's going on. It seems like the @engine.connection is being set to Mysql2Adapter somehow:

I'll keep working on this to see if I can figure out why

[metaskills]

Thanks to both of you. I wonder if this is an issue with Arel too. I did not see any tickets on their page that suggested someone reported something similar. I also did not dig into issue in the rails github project either. So maybe a dive there too?

[ivanoats]

yeah, this is not right, right?
