This is resolved for the sqlanywhere gem. I have been unable to successfully use dbi.

Basically I was running the 32-bit version of Ruby and did not have dbcapi.dll within the following folder structure - C:Program FilesSQL Anywhere 12Bin32. I had another test machine (32-bit) SQL Anywhere where I copied the dbcapi.dll on the 64-bit test machine. My path was already set.

To summarize - when running ruby 1.9.3p385 (2013-02-06) [i386-mingw32] to use the sqlanywhere gem (sqlanywhere-0.1.6-x86-mingw32) ensure the following:

1. dbcapi.dll exists in the following folder structure - C:\Program Files\SQL Anywhere 12\Bin32\
2. Make sure your path includes C:Program FilesSQL Anywhere 12Bin32
