Yeah, everybody here encountered and solved problems on using .NET with MySQL. We are peons, right. If management tells us to use MySQL, then we'll use MySQL. By the way, we have now have .NET apps running on MySQL, and they work fine. I hope the providers
get perfected before other providers for other free databases catch up. Or I'll really get pissed and complain to my boss. Hehehe...
As you can se a few messages above I've had problems with the (admittedly free) version of dbProvider when it randomly closes my connection, not all the time, not in the same place every time, not even in the same subroutine everytime. As such I have no intention
of paying for a 'pro' version if they can't release a stable 'personal' version - just my opinion.
Bumbling Fool, You'll just have to live with it. We bought the pro version but it also has some problems. But very few. Perhaps, the author doesn't want to mess around with two code base, one for the full-featured and one for the free version. Sometimes it
is hard to strip down a full version. You have a right to have no intention of buying the pro version. As for us... we were forced to.
Well, no offense, but I've had no problems with either version. I used the free before deciding the pro suited my needs. Perhaps you have an issue with your code or the enviroment it's running in. Did you ever contact their technical support group? Derek
Well, compared with a typical user experience, speed is not an issue. But do a few hundered thousand transactions a day, and you'll notice speed a factor. Derek
There is a restriction on how many columns you can return on the trial version. The maximum column returned is 8. Which means your 9th column will return null on your applications.
Hello folks, I am new to MySql. I have installed MS ODBC drive 3.51 on a remote Windows 2003 server, and an using OLEDB driver for ODBC with Visual Studio.NET 2003 (Visual Basic). In the database explorer of VS.NET, I can read and update the remote MySql database,
and see the table structures, but I cannot add/modify tables. I would like to br able to manage this database remotely. Can this be done with any of the providers you have been looking at? Thanks!
