Incorrect syntax near 'OFFSET' when using Limit

[aridnei]

Hi,

Using rails 4.2.0 + activerecord-sqlserver-adapter 4.2.0 + tiny_tds 0.6.2 + SQLServer 2008 R2, I get query syntax error like that...

TinyTds::Error: Incorrect syntax near 'OFFSET'.: EXEC sp_executesql N'SELECT [company].* FROM [company] ORDER BY [company].[IDCompany] ASC OFFSET 0 ROWS FETCH NEXT 5 RO
WS ONLY'

Here rails console error ...

2.1.3p242 :018 > Company.limit(5)
Company Load (40.3ms) EXEC sp_executesql N'SELECT [company].* FROM [company] ORDER BY [company].[IDCompany] ASC OFFSET 0 ROWS FETCH NEXT 5 ROWS ONLY'
TinyTds::Error: Incorrect syntax near 'OFFSET'.: EXEC sp_executesql N'SELECT [company].* FROM [company] ORDER BY [company].[IDCompany] ASC OFFSET 0 ROWS FETCH NEXT 5 RO

SQLServer 2008 R2

This is an unsupported version of SQL Server. Please read this title.
https://github.com/rails-sqlserver/activerecord-sqlserver-adapter

Does this mean that in order to use rails with a 2008 server I have to downgrade rails?

[metaskills]

@colepanike That statement is not entirely true. If you are on SQL Server 2008 and this is a new project, then you are not downgrading, you are just limited to Rails 4.1 which is still supported and in some ways faster than 4.2 too. Downgrading implies that you are already at 4.2 which can not be the case since it requires 2012 and higher. HTH. You can read more info in #397 if you are curious as to why this happened.

[neohunter]

So, SQLSERVER 2008 works with this gem only till rails 4.1? Please confirm @metaskills

[neohunter]

I just confirmed that downgrade to rails 4.1.2 fixes the problem.

[tommyalvarez]

@metaskills I already have a Rails 5.0.1 project that i can't downgrade down to Rails 4.1, hundreds of development hours invested already. I need to connect specific models to a sql server 2005 database. The only queries i will be doing are selects . Is there a monkey patch or something that can be done in order to support Rails 5 and sql server 2005/2008 LIMIT and OFFSET?
