Sequel: DB2 Adapter Not Found

Okay, I've been trying to connect to a DB2 Database. I've been trying to use Sequel, in the hope of building some POROs for accessing data in my DB2 Database.

So after installing Sequel, I've been trying to do the following in irb

require 'sequel'
DB = Sequel.connect('db2://myuser:[email protected]:10000/mydatabase')

Which gives me the following error:

Sequel::AdapterNotFound: LoadError: cannot load such file -- db2/db2cli

Looking at the sequel source for the DB2 Adapter inside sequel, this is generating from this require statement

require 'db2/db2cli'

So I installed every gem I thought It could be trying to require: db2, ibm_db and dbi. I've also downloaded the CLI and put it in my system path and downloaded an DB2 Express C. No matter what I try, I can't get past this require statment.

You probably want to install ibm_db and use ibmdb://... instead of db2://.... db2://... is for the old db2/db2cli driver which is not available in gem form (you can get it at http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/8264/ruby-db2-0.4.4.tar.gz).
