Could not initiate communication with the server.

hi,
I have an ASP.NET application using C# and dbProvider and MySqlConnection.
If I have "localhost" in the connect string, I can connect to the database from the local machine. However, if I have anything else in the connect string I get this error:
"Could not initiate communication with the server."
My goal is to connect to my MYSQL server from a remote machine, but I am having this problem. The local machine also gets this error if it puts its IP address or its own COMPUTERNAME in the connect string.
Ever see this?
Thanks!
Dave

Understand that the C# application is being executed with IIS on machine B, and the MySQL service is running on machine A.

According to stack trace what you use is definitely not MySQLDirect .NET Data Provider. We do not support 3rd party products. For more information about MySQLDirect .NET look

Is not eInfoDesigns and Cole Labone and the same?
I downloaded the files from the link you provided and tried to install it and it said I already have it installed.
Is not eInfoDesigns.dbProvider made by core labs? What is the name of the object you expected to see in the stack trace?
thanks!

You can have MySQLDirect .NET installed, but you use another product. We do not solve problems with eInfoDesigns provider.
The full connection name is CoreLab.MySql.MySqlConnection.
If you have MySQLDirect .NET installed you can find multiple examples in the /CoreLab/MySQLDirect .NET/Samples folder.
