  MySQL.Data cannot be found..?

  Feb 24, 2012 09:55 PM|LINK

  Hi Folks,

  I'm using MySQL with Asp.net for the first time.
  I'm trying to simply open the connection to the DB.

  However I'm getting the error that MySQLData cannot be found and therefore MySQLConnection is undefined.

  I did add references to MySql.Data.dll & MySql.Web.dll  v4.0....

  Any ideas why it would still not show up even after the references where added...?

  I'm also importing the namespace in the code:
  <%@ Import Namespace="MySQL.Data" %> 

  Regards,
  Andy

  I tried createing MySQLConnection  in ASP MVC 2 application and It worked for me.

  I imported <%@ Import Namespace="MySql.Data.MySqlClient" %> after adding MySql.Data.dll reference.  Then I was able to create the connection.

  I referenced the DLLs in the MySQL folder and not in my bin folder...
  The DLLs had to be in the Bin.
