Please send me an e-mail to andreyz*devart*com . I will send you a test application, so you will be able to check this problem.

Hello,

with your test application I can connect to the MySQL DB.
Your project is with a MyDAC component TMyConnect.

I have UniDAC Components.

The TUniConnect Component needs a Provider Component, in my case
TMySQLUniProvider Component.A providername must be defined
in the TUniConnetion Component object.

With the changed Project, I get the "Bad Handshake" error.

I have send the edited project to you.

Regards,
Daniel

I've checked the edited project you sent me. Using your Project1.exe I receive the "Bad Handshake" error, but after rebuilding this application in RAD Studio XE with UniDAC 3.70.0.18, this error doesn't occur. Please check the exact version of UniDAC you have on your computer. For this, please look at the About sheet of TUniConnection Editor. Also please check if you can connect to your MySQL server in the Direct mode in design-time.

Hello,

Now I can connect to the MySql DB.

I had a UniDac 3.70.0.17 Version not a 3.70.0.18.
Before I used an old unidac370d15pro.exe to (re-)install UniDAC.

Thanks for help
