Have a look here :

I only know about Sage line 500, but that runs on SQL server (for example).
So you will need the odbc connection string to the underlying database (or
inbuilt PHP functions such as mysql_connect). Your connection string there
looks like the name of the database. It needs to look more like (MySQL
example)
DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51
Driver};SERVER=localhost;DATABASE=myDatabase;USER=myUsername;PASSWORD=myPass
word;OPTION=3;"
