Server Explore and Data Connections

Post by bledet1 » Fri 25 Aug 2006 19:30

I am trying to add a data connection to VS 2005 Server Explorer. I can change the provider to MySQL and the connection windows shows up, but when I type something in, it immediately disappears.

XP x64
VS 2005
MySQLDirect 3.50.12

Database Tools and DbExplorer work fine.

What edition of Visual Studio do you use? Professional, Standard?
What version of MySQLDirect is installed (Pro/Std/Mobile)?

It's hardly reproducible. Try to reinstall MySQLDirect.

RE: Not able to add DataConnection

I tried uninstalling and then reinstalling. Same thing. I click to add a data connection. Then change the data source to MySQL Database (MySQLDirect .NET) then start to type an IP or server name in the host field and it closes immediately.

Visual Studion 2005 Pro
XP x64 - 2 gb Ram
MySQL 5.0 on local box
Core Lab MySQLDirect for .NET 2 Trial

I have a customer who wants to use MySQL to recode their entire Access Database system to .net and I would like to use your product to make it easier.

Try to press "Advanced" on the connection windows and type in data there.
Make sure you don't have old CoreLab assemblies somewhere on your system.
Try to debug with МЫ and find out the exception message.
If nothing helps send us your machine.config file and the value of the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0
(you may delete any confidential information from it).
