MSSQL Access From Zend2 via Linux - sql-server

Question

I'm upgrading an application that presently runs on ZendFramework1(ZF1) to ZendFramework2(ZF2). I'm having trouble getting DB results to return from the ZF2 connection.
In ZF1 this test works perfectly:
$db = Zend_Db::factory('Pdo_Mssql', array(
'host' => 'ServerNameFromFreeTdsConfig',
'charset' => 'UTF-8',
'username' => 'myUsername',
'password' => 'myPassword',
'dbname' => 'database_name',
'pdoType' => 'dblib'
));
$stmt = $db->prepare("select * from Products");
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->fetchAll();
$stmt->closeCursor();
However, I've been trying this in ZF2 but I'm not really getting anywhere. In my config\autoload\global.php I have:
return array(
'db' => array(
'host' => 'ServerNameFromFreeTdsConfig',
'charset' => 'UTF-8',
'dbname' => 'database_name',
'username' => 'myUsername',
'password' => 'myPassword',
'driver' => 'pdo',
'pdodriver' => 'dblib',
),
);
And in the Module.php file:
public function onBootstrap(MvcEvent $e)
{
$eventManager = $e->getApplication()->getEventManager();
$moduleRouteListener = new ModuleRouteListener();
$moduleRouteListener->attach($eventManager);
$config = $e->getApplication()->getServiceManager()->get('Configuration');
$dbAdapter = new Adapter($config['db'], new SqlServer());
GlobalAdapterFeature::setStaticAdapter($dbAdapter);
}
Then in the Model\Products.php
class Products extends AbstractTableGateway
{
protected $table;
protected $featureSet;
public function __construct($table = 'Products') {
$this->table = $table;
$this->featureSet = new FeatureSet();
$this->featureSet->addFeature(new GlobalAdapterFeature());
$this->initialize();
}
//Test the connection.
public function getProducts() {
$result = $this->getAdapter()->query("select * from Products", Adapter::QUERY_MODE_EXECUTE);
die(var_dump($result));
}
}
It looks like it is connecting because the "var_dump" above returns a ["fieldCount":protected]=> int(7) which is correct (there are 7 columns in that table). However, it is not returning any results.
What might I need to do to get this to work in ZF2? Do I need to somehow extend Zend\Db\Adapter\Adapter using code from the ZF1 Zend_Db_Adapter_Pdo_Mssql.php file? Or is there some simple solution I'm missing?
Thanks for any insight.

Answer 1

I think you dont need to mention the user name and password
resources.db.adapter = "sqlsrv"
resources.db.host = "localhost\SQLEXPRESS"
resources.db.dbname = "DatabaseName"
resources.db.isDefaultTableAdapter = true
resources.db.driver_options.ReturnDatesAsStrings = true

Answer 2

I ended up writing my own Adapter adopted from the Zend Framework 1 adapter I had working there. If someone comes across this post looking for a solution to the same problem and would like a copy of the code I transposed, let me know. There is quite a lot of code or I'd post it here.
