Hi all, I am trying to connect to a MySQL database using dbexpress (delphi 7 enterprise on Win XP PC). MySQL is located on one of our servers
I have setup the params thus: DriverName=MySQL HostName=10.2.200.224 Database=pheonix User_Name=PheonixAdmin Password=******* BlobSize=-1 ErrorResourceFile= LocaleCode=0000 The path to MySQL is correct and the user/password are good When I try to connect the login box appears as expected but I get the following error message after entering the username/password: dbExpress Error: [0x000C] Invalid Username/Password SQL Server Error: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061) Since I have already set the Hostname in the params, and the database login box is displayed, I don't understand the reference to 'localhost'!! Anyone have any idea whats going on here?? Paul.
