MySql Connection problem

[Tony Elmore]

Hello…   I’ve been working with SQL Server and I’ve been able to execute just fine.  I am now wanting to connect to a MySql DB.    So I installed the MySql Connector 1.0.7 and enabled the provider in the provider.config and changed the specified provider in the SqlMap.config file (as well as my connection string values in properties.config).   However, when I attempt to perform a select statement, I receive the following error:   ‘Unable to connect to any of the specified MySql hosts.  No such host is known’.   The only oddity in the installation is that I’ve used a different port than the default.  I’ve tried localhost:port and port=xxxx in the connection string.   Any assistance would be appreciated.   Regards, Tony
