MYSQL :: Need To Install MyODBC 3.51.14 On Windows Client

MyODBC Install
For the fourth day I'm trying to install MyODBC. I installed the old 2.5 ver as well as the newest 3.5.The install completes successfully but when I go to the ODBC admin and try to add a new DSN, mysql is not in the driver list. I checked the registry and it is there- but not in the list.

Please someone help, I've never been pushed this far back in development by something that seems so simple / are there any 3rd part MySQL drivers I can use?

JOIN Issue On WIndows Install But Not Linux Install
I am using MySQL 5.0.15 on windows and cannot run this query:

SELECT a.*,b.name, c.fullname,d.fullname FROM access_authorization a, building b
LEFT JOIN users c ON a.createdby=c.id
LEFT JOIN users d ON a.modifiedby=d.id
WHERE a.sortcode=b.sortcode AND a.sortcode like '1,2,1,6%' LIMIT 0, 25

I receive:
ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'a.createdby' in 'on clause'

But this query DOES work under my linux 5.0.0-alpha!

I can modify the SQL Statement to the following and it works fine:

SELECT a.*,b.name, c.fullname,d.fullname FROM access_authorization a
LEFT JOIN users c ON a.createdby=c.id
LEFT JOIN users d ON a.modifiedby=d.id
RIGHT JOIN building b ON a.sortcode=b.sortcode
WHERE a.sortcode like '1,2,1,6%' LIMIT 0, 25 .

After Install Cant Select Install As Windows Service
i cannot configure MySQL to install as a windows service. NOR can i get the blasted thing to let me setup a user name and password. how do i correct this ?

MyODBC Error On Windows Server 2003 - Unable To Set Up DSN
I recently installed MySQL on my Windows Server 2003 and got to know that one needs MyODBC also, in order to make ASP webpages able to access the MySQL database.

Now, here is my problem.
I installed MyODBC-3.51.06.exe on my server. The installation went OK. But when I want to make a User DSN or System DSN i get the following errormessage:

"The setup routines for the MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver ODBC driver could not be loaded due to system error code 126." What do I do?

When clicking OK, the following warningbox appears:

"Could not load the setup or translator library."

but i wonder if there are more.Logfile.

Install MySQL Client
Is there any client tools available for mysql like sql server so that i can install server in one machine and client tool in a client machine that will connect to the mysql sever

Windows Client 4.1.14
I know that I have exhausted my budget of MySQL questions for the day, but I have one more and promise that I won't ask anymore today.I must install MySQL 4.1.14 client only on Windows XP 2002 SP2.Does anyone have guidance for me for downloading just the 4.1.14 client for Windows XP 2002 SP2? I would also be obliged if there are also warnings of foxholes on MySQL client-only installs.

Timeout Problem (windows Client)
I'm developping with php/mysql a web application for database managing and my problem is the following :

When I navigate throught my pages everything is ok but if I'd been inactive for a couple of minutes and I can't navigate anymore and my browser (IE and firefox have been used for this test) inform me that there's no databases selected. I use sessions in my web application and I thought it could end but I check my parameter and the time session is infinite.

Do you think the problem come from default timeout?, how do I change its value ? (I work with easyPHP (Apache 1.3.33, PHP 4.3.10, mysql 4.1.9 )

Install On Windows XP
I cant get mysql to run on my winXP computer. I have downloaded it and
installed , unzipped and run setup.exe and placed it in c:mysql.
I type the command to start the mysql server
c:mysqli mysqld --console

It opens the console and then the console shows some inoDB commands and the
console hangs.

I followed the mysql manual and i cant find the answer
there is no command prompt and nothing...how do I run mysql?

Install My SQL In Windows XP?
Can we install MY SQL in Windows XP? I tried to install but it gave error "This enterprise server sersion is not supported by this OS. Only Client version will be installed".

Install MySQL 4.1 On Windows
I'm trying to install the 4.1 alpha binary version on Windows.

After unzipping the download I don't find a setup.exe file.

MySQL 5.0.45 Windows Install
I am having an issue installing MySQL 5.0.45 on Windows 2003 (VMware). Basically, I extracted the contents of "mysql-5.0.45-win32.zip" to c: emp and double-clicked the setup.exe. However, the install wizard doesn't launch. I get a window with the install options via CLI.

Sharing MySQL Install Between Multiboot Machines (windows)
On Windows, I multiboot W2k, WXP. All 2 have MySQL install but in different
directories and partitions. I (unfortunately) also have 2 instances of one database.

Is there a way for MySQL to share a common installation and database?

I suppose it is possible. If so, and if I install MySQL in W2K first, what are the steps to
import the database install into XP?
Will I need to install in XP again, and just import the databases? Or just create a
windows shortcut to database directory so it's automaticaly imported into XP MySQL?

First Time Install On Windows - Admin User&password Problem
I have a problem with logging in to MySQL. Access denied.

I think the issue is with the host, user and password settings. I assumed you had to add this information to the my.ini before you started the service for the first time. Is this only for WinMySQLAdmin? Is there a default?

I have tried all the solutions I could find but they seem to all require user privileges in the first place.

I simply need to have one main admin user and password and to refresh their values to be certain of the new settings in case there was one before.

Client Does Not Support Authentication Protocol Requested By Server; Consider Upgrading MySQL Client In
I have recently upgraded to MySQL 5. Got this error message in my IE Browser. Have read some of the comments on other forums and my choices are: Upgrade all client programs to use a 4.1.1 or newer client library, or

SET PASSWORD FOR
-> 'some_user'@'some_host' = OLD_PASSWORD('newpwd')

Can someone please advise?

Mysql_connect(): Client Does Not Support Authentication Protocol Requested By Server; Consider Upgrading MySQL Client
Basically I am setting up php,mysql and apache to run an application. While trying to connect I get the following error:

I am trying this from a long time and do not find a way to fix this problem
I request you guys to help me in soughting this out and I appreciate your patience in reading my post.

Mysql_connect(): Client Does Not Support Authentication Protocol Requested By Server; Consider Upgrading MySQL Client
I am having an awkward problem with my MySQL installation. I have a number of scripts that access the database from a few different web hosting sites. I have no problem accessing the database from the scripts that I host locally. The scripts that are on an outside server accessing the database gives me a mysql_connect() error.

Locally I use MySQL 5.0 and PHP 5.0. I am assuming that the 3rd party web host uses an older version of PHP and thinking that may be the problem. Is this the possible problem and if so is there a way to fix it without ruining the scripts that are currently working?

Install / Re-Install MySQL 4.x
1. If I want to simply run MySQL on my RedHat Linux server (Intel) based which product to I install?

2. I have paritally installed MySQL once. Had some problems. Now that I am trying to Re-Install, it says that I cannot because previous components exists. How do I uninstall MySQL?

MyODBC
I have a mySQL database hosted by a company. I installed the myODBC connector and need to connect to it in a vb6 program. I set up a user and password for the database i want to connect to. My string looks like this:

Dim conn As New ADODB.Connection

conn.ConnectionString = "DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};SERVER=localhost;DATABASE=rentapar_System_Property;UID=rentapar_Client;PWD=password;"

it says it can't connect to mySQL server on 'localhost'
I am not getting where it is looking for the server. Do I need to set up a DSN? If so what do I use as server? Where do I point it to the hosted server? Please help!?? Do most hosting companies allow access from off the net like an application?

MyODBC
I have problem in using ODBC for Voice Guide (an IVR application). I can connect to MySQL database successfully. The only thing is that everytime the system tried to connect to MySQL database through ODBC the Connector/ODBC Configuration Windows Pops Up. I have tried to pass Option=16 and also tick "Don't Prompt Upon Connect" property on Flag 2 but the window still pops up.

Here is the details of my system:
OS: Windows XP Pro SP2
MySQL Server: version 4.1.11-log via TCP/IP
Client version: MySQL Client Version 5.0.11
ODBC version 3.51

I didn't have this problem before I reformat my harddrive and reinstall Windows.

MyODBC 3.51
I have a C# program which uses a remote MySQL database to store user information. It uses MyODBC 3.51. However, I find making people download and install MyODBC seperately from the application rather annoying. Is there any way I can package MyODBC with the installation package for my application

MyODBC To OpenOffice.org
I'm trying to connect OpenOffice.org to MySQL through MyODBC. MySQL is
set up, but I'm having problems setting up MyODBC. I checked the
documentation on the MySQL webpage, and tried to set it up that way, but
OpenOffice.org can't find MyODBC. It can't find the libodbc.so.1. I
tried to follow the set up PDF file on the OpenOffice.org webpage, but it
switches between MyODBC and UnixODBC.

I copied the libraries to /usr/lib, and made the link in /usr/local. I
set up the obdb.ini in /usr/etc. Is there something I'm missing to set up
the connection? Has anyone had luck with this?

MyODBC Driver
Trying to use MySql 5.0.27 with Dreamweaver MX & PHP & Apache

In "Inside Dreamweaver MX" the authors state 'If you're using MySQL as your DBMS, you need to use the MyODBC driver to create your DSN's See Appendix C for full coverage of obtaining & setting up MyODBC' Unfortunately Appendix C does not mention MyODBC although is does mention MySQL.

They are referring to an earlier version of MySQL (3.23) and show setting up the DSN in windows.

My problem is I cannot see the MyODBC driver. Is this a separate download?

MyODBC And Citrix
My client (and hence I!) need to install MyODBC on a Citrix server, but
when the MyODBC installation .exe is run, it fails. The .msi also fails.

Investigation on the web indicates that this might have something to do
with the Citrix environment not liking "hardcoded" paths in installation
programs, but naive fumbling with Orca on the .msi didn't really help.

Has anyone succeeded in installing MyODBC in a Citrix environment, and
if so, how?

Uninstall MyODBC
How do I uninstall myODBC from wind98? everything was working, then badness at the shop so... I have reloaded wind98,mySQL now mySQL works OK but I cant setup myODBC (setup says myODBC installed ok but when I try to make data source it says drivers no good, reinstall...

looks to me like I need to uninstall, but myODBC has no uninstall Alas! does anyone know whaich registry entries to delete?

MyODBC Time
recenlty I wanted to migrate my app from MySQL 3 to MySQL4.1.19, conector: MyODBC 3.51.06 into MyODBC 3.51.11-1win.

Now I have a problem with time values from my database. In a field I have the value '00:00:01'. When I retrieve this value in my app (via MyODBC) i get a null value. I don't want that null value, I vant my '00:00:01'.

Before the migration, I hadn't this problem ... everything worked fine. Is there a setting in MyODBC that I must check to solve this? If not, how can I solve this problem ... quick?

MyODBC Mapping
I have an VB frontend that can't be changed for various reasons, and have
been attempting to move the database (access) out to MySQL (for various
other reasons ;). I haven't been able to successfully read True/False
fields, and after much research it appears that I need to map any true/false
or yes/no to 1/0 in the MyODBC source code.

I've downloaded the source code, but I haven't been able to determine what
and how to change the mapping. Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated!

FYI: I tried treating the MySQL side as an enum field, but the VB front end
won't accept the result.

MyODBC VB6 Problem
I have made a program that runs off the task scheduler. It connects to a web database using MyODBC. This works most of the time, but once in a while i'll get the MyODBC DSN connection window. I'm not sure why this pops up. should i upgrade the MyODBC from version 2.5 to the newest version? If this is not the case, is there a way to hide this in code or through settings.

MyODBC Driver
I have winxp as OS & my php folder is located in c:XXXXphp.

I am getting these errors while running a php code-

Warning: mysqli::mysqli() [function.mysqli-mysqli]: (28000/1045): Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in C:wampwwwprosenjitOODatabase.class on line 16

Warning: mysqli::query() [function.mysqli-query]: Couldn't fetch mysqli in C:wampwwwprosenjitOODatabase.class on line 32
Database is not available. Try again later

Will installing 'MyODBC Driver' solve my problem? What other things should i ensure so as not to get these error.I have WAMP5 installed.

Connector MyODBC
Can I using MyODBC to connect to MySQL Server through A Proxy Server ?

MySQL / MyODBC
I installed MySQL v4.0.20d and MyODBC v2.50.39 on a Windows 2000 workstation SP4. When I go to StartProgramsAdministrative Tools I don't see the Data Sources menu option. When I installed the same software on a Windows 2000 Server, I do see the Data Sources menu option.

MyODBC And DB Access
I setup Apache, PHP, and Mysql on our internal server probably 5 years ago. It works so good I NEVER have to do anything so I've gotten really rusty. The problem is we use UPS through MyODBC to add shipping data to our DB. We recently got a new computer to run the UPS stuff. I can't get MyODBC to connect from the new computer to save my life.

I joined our domain restarted a bunch of time and still when I setup the system I get an error to the effect of "Matt@MASTER" password =yes access denied. Now here is the kicker. the computer name isn't master its been renamed. I removed the 3.5 MyODBC driver and installed the 2.5 like the old computer had just to be sure. It is doing the same thing. So I found a way thanks to google to grant access to that username in a range of IP addresses.

here it is: "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON db.* TO matt@'192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0';

which has a result of 0 rows effected!?

I have tried a different user when using the mysql program on the server machine and been able to login with it and the matt user mentioned above. However still nothing at the MyODBC end with the UPS system.

Configuring MyODBC
I am using MyODBC 3.51 with Borland BDE, and was having a problem whereby Blob result fields were being restricted to a maximum size of 32k. Now, in the BDE control panel, I can set configuration variables for the MyODBC driver, and I was able to change the value of BLOB SIZE from 32 to 128, which solved the problem. However, there are many other configuration variables there (TRACE MODE, BATCH COUNT, BLOBS TO CACHE, ENABLE SCHEMA CACHE, ROWSET SIZE, etc.) for which I have not been able to find any documentation. Does anybody know where I can find documentation for these settings?

MyODBC And Remote
I'm conected to server and my app works just fine, and I was connecting to MySQL over ODBC (my app is running on winXP)! It was good while I was using only USERNAME with blank PASSWORD in MySQL! But when I put password, I can't connect, and of course my USER/PASS combination is OK! I try to search for known MySQL bug in this version but with no results!

Views And MyODBC
well i just installed MySQL "5.0.1-alpha-nt-max" to play around with the new Features on my local PC.reating and accessing Views seems to work, but as it seems MyODBC 3.51.09 cant handle Views.
Are there any plans to support Views also via MyODBC ?
If so, is that Feature currently in the Bitkeeper-Repository of "MySQL Connector/ODBC 3.52" ?

MyODBC - Updating Joins
I am using MyODBC (35017) in VB and i get an error when I try and update a recordset which involves a join. Surely one isnt limited to only single tables?

Recordset.CursorLocation = adUseServer

Recordset.Open "SELECT pd.products_name 'Product Name', p.products_quantity 'Product Stock' FROM products p, products_description pd WHERE p.products_id = pd.products_id;", Connection, adOpenForwardOnly, adLockOptimistic

Recordset(1) = 5
Recordset.Update
Recordset.Close

Gives me the following error: "Query clause can not be updated because the FROM clause is not a single simple table name"

Retaining Control From MyODBC
I'm developing a system with an Excel front-end that uses ADODB and MyODBC to fire off instructions to a (local machine) MySQL server. As I step through my VBA code, it sends an instruction to MySQL (e.g. gconMySQL.Execute "DROP TABLE IF EXISTS MyData;" ), waits for the instruction to be executed, before returning control to the code and moving on to the next VBA statement. All well and good; this works fine for the majority of the processing.

However there is some initialisation of the MySQL database, particularly loading some data tables into MEMORY, that takes up to half a minute to complete. I'd rather fire off the instruction(s) to MySQL to do this so that MySQL initialises invisibly in the background, whilst the user continues playing around with the front-end themselves.

Linking MyODBC Drivers
Could someone please help me with the linker options for linking the MySQL ODBC drivers. I'm running on Redhat Linux, with gcc 3.4.6.

Myodbc 3.51 Connector Freezes
I just installed mysql server 5.0 and myodb driver 3.51. Now I'm trying to make a DSN on my system. When I enter the Data Source Name, Server, User and Password, then when I click the Database drop-down menu, the program freezes. It does not do anything, just sits there. I set up the database properly, and it is configured and ready to go but I cannot get past this.

Slow Performance Using MyODBC
I am creating a pair of applications that essentially transfer data from a remote client to a local server. The trick is that "remote" in this application means "way out in the mountains where it takes an hour by four wheel drive to reach the nearest paved road and don't even talk to me about a cell tower for another hour or so of driving".

Because of this, we are using shoe-leather-net to communicate between the client and the server. The client is collecting data into a MySQL table. Every so often, a person will use the client application to copy the data onto a thumb drive and carry it down the mountain to the server, where the partner application will copy the data into an identical MySQL table. These are distinctly non-technical people I am talking about here - typing a file name is a high-skill activity - so this needs to be a dead-simple user interface.

The data is sensitive, so it is encrypted going on to the thumb drive and decrypted coming off.

Here is the question: The copy process that I have programmed is very slow - on average 2 seconds per row - on both ends of the transaction and this does not seem right. What can I do to improve it?

When the process is running, Task Manager shows that mysqld-nt is using as much of the CPU as it can get and the actual application is only using CPU time once in a while.

The basic client task is this:
-- Read a row from the local table
-- Encrypt the row
-- Write the encrypted row to the file
-- Repeat until all of the unexported data has been copied

The basic server task is the inverse:
-- Read a line from the file
-- Decrypt the line and construct a corresponding INSERT statement
-- Execute the INSERT
-- Repeat until end-of-file

Other possibly pertinent information:
-- Windows XP Pro
-- Visual Basic.Net
-- MySQL 4.1.14-nt
-- MyODBC 3.51.13 Dave Gee

MyODBC Command Syntax
I'm trying to do what I thought was a fairly simple thing, select a group of
records from a mySQL database.
I'm not much of an SQL guy. The syntax I would use for Microsoft SQL is
shown on the "query =" line.
A myODBC error message indicates this is not supported syntax.
Can anyone help me?

{ ADO Startup Values and Creation using the .Open method}

{Create a COM object reference to ADO Recordset.}
recordset = COM_CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset");

{ Open a Recordset }
query = "SELECT * FROM t_course_date
WHERE(modified>=CONVERT(DATETIME,'1999-07-31 00:00:00',102))";
("modified" field above is a mySQL field name)

recordset.Open(query, 'connection id', adOpenDynamic,adLockOptimistic); <--
This statement fails.

C++ Wrapper For UnixODBC/MyODBC

I used an odbc-wrapper connectting mysql with unixODBC.
But it didnt work well, often some exception occured.
So I need one new wrapper for unixODBC, it must run stably.

MS Access, MySQL & MyODBC .....
I am using MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver, with MS Access 2003 and MySQL 4.1.11
standard log.

I created my tables in MS Access, then exported them via ODBC to an
externally hosted MySQL database (fasthosts) . I then import-linked
them back into my MS Access database.
Before I import linked them back, I edited the tables in MySQL so that
the PK & Autonumber was set and added a timestamp field.

The problem I seem to have is that when I use the Timestamp field in
MySQL, I cannot seem to update current records on my Access forms
without getting the error 'Reserved Error (-7776)'. If I remove the
Timestamp field, the error goes away, but then I get the usual #Deleted
problem when adding records etc.

I know the timestamp is required, but I cannot seem to get arround this
unknown error ?

MyODBC 3.51 To MySQL 5.0 Alpha
I am recently testing out MySQL 5.0.0_2 Alpha on a FreeBSD 5.2 server.
Also, I am experimenting with MS Windows connectivity, and although the MySQL Administrator application works beautifully, I seem unable to establish an ODBC DSN to the database.
I installed MyODBC 3.51.06 but it fails upon authentication with the following message:
[MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver] Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client
And am I considering, but it doesn't help. Any good suggestions or is it not yet possible to connect through ODBC

MyODBC And Hierarchical Datasets
Has anyone tried (and succeded?) in specifying the appropriate connect
string for a hierarchical dataset using MyODBC?
It's where you specify MSDATASHAPE as your "Provider" but then need to
designate MyODBC as the "Data" Provider.
