Has anyone had any luck getting PDO_IBM to work?
A user wanted to connect PHP's PDO_IBM driver to Informix for use with Zend Framework, complaining of a lack of examples or documentation. One reply pointed to the php.net PDO_INFORMIX page, but Fernando Nunes noted PDO_IBM is not PDO_INFORMIX and requires the DRDA listener to be configured, supplying links to an IBM developerWorks thread and Informix Infocenter pages on PHP and DRDA. The poster then set up DRDA and tried a PDO connection string, but hit a PDOException ("SQLSTATE=, SQLAllocHandle: 0"). The thread ends there, with no resolution recorded.

We havent and theres no examples or documentation to be found. Someone in this newsgroup claimed to have figured it out last month but didnt give any examples. We would like to use Informix with Zend Framework.

We would like to use Informix with Zend Framework.
