[GRLUG] LAMP [PHP] -> ODBC

[L. V. Lammert]

Trying to rebuild an ancient PHP server installation that uses an ODBC
connection to a Windoze box, .. the current solution is dbctp (a la 1987),
which hangs on a regular basis and must be restarted.

Looking at switching to unixODBC (package install, great, current even),
.. but the DB is actually VisualFoxPro and the ODBC driver will not
install on the dev srv 2008 box.

VFP seems to have switched to OLE DB some years ago, but that won't
provide an ODBC connection.

Has anyone dealt with an architecture like this?

        Thanks!
