I created the database as per the $install.htm and then tried to run the convertmysql,asp script.

The page loaded ok and I entered the filename: create600mysql.txt and my password into the password field. (Also tried leaving password blank)

This is the error I get:
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

DRIVER={MySQL}; Server=127.0.0.1; Database=mysql600; UID=root; PWD=mypassword

No problem connecting with mysqladmin from local machine and also from another machine.

' VP-ASP Shopping Cart Database Configuration 6.00
const xDatabase="mysql600" 'Database name
const xdblocation="" 'location of database relative to VP-ASP files
const xdatabasetype="MYSQL" ' Database type: empty or ODBC, SQLServer, Drive
const xSQLUser="root" ' SQL Server user
const xSQLPwd="mypassword" ' SQL Server password
const xSQLServer="localhost" ' SQL Server name or IP address

Have tried localhost and 127.0.0.1 for the SQLServer.

Did I miss where a DSN has to be created?

Thanks in advance for any pointer you may be able to provide.

Heinz

Hi,

Try setting xdatabasetype = "MYSQL351" instead.

This tells VP-ASP to connect using more recent MYSQL ODBC drivers.

Finally getting back to this.

Tried the MYSQL351, no difference.

I can access database with a client prog and have data, etc. I.e. can view it.

This is the error from diag_mysqldbtest.asp. I'm in the process of double checking but am wondering re the ODBC driver: Do I have to set up a DSN entry via the MS ODBC Administration?

Hi Heinz.

I have the same problem.

I have modified the database code in one of the files to overcome this error.

I have emailed you the changes.

yes please! It would be much appreciated if the fix were posted here.

We're probably not the only ones with this problem, we're just not afraid to ask for help ;)

Thanks!

Guys,

I have the exact same issue. Can't figure out the cause!

MSQL running,
Permissions checked
the VPASP diagnostics failed as heinz described!

Who could give some help?

cheers

Sorry folks,

I didin't realize so many had the same problem.

I'll try to help, but I'm no expert.

A forwarn, I've put version 6 aside for now but I did have it working and the same worked for me with version 3.5/4. My reason for sticking with the older version is due to having made many changes to tie vpasp in as front-end to live ordering/stock-checks etc. I did use what I learned in getting V6 going to change from Access to mySQL in my older version and I'm extremely happy with the performance.

Not sure where to start as a bit of water has gone by the bridge, but lets try.

First, check ODBC Data Source Administrator and make sure you have the MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver listed. If not get the Connector from the mySQL website.

Here is how I open the database:
Sub OpenDB
' Create ADO data connection object
Set cnnTkEcatDB = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
connect_string = "Driver={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver}; Server=localhost; Database=" & mydata & "; UID=root; PWD=xxxxxxx"
cnnTkEcatDB.open connect_string
End Sub

Note that I went to values directly instead of variables other than mydata. That's was just to make sure resetting a variable did not happen. remember I'm working with much hacked code :-). Initially even then mydata var was hardcoded with it's value instead.

Hope this helps. If you've tried this and no go I'll try and go deeper into memory to see what I did.

Hi Heinz,

I've downloaded MySQL connector 1.0.7 from mysql site, run it, install it and still can't see this driver in the ODBC list.

Could you clarify what sort of script you wrote in you last post, I can't grasp it. I have mySQL 5 installed.

much appreciated

OK

I have ODBC driver installed properly now, it appears in the drivers' list and I probably one step closer to a successfull connection.

Open Messages
[MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver]Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

MySQL Admin Panel user name is "root" and I'm using "localhost" to open a connection. No problems whatsoever to get and control MySQL server.

Why "localhost" failed to connect ODBC to MySQL? Any hint is welcome!

Cheers

Be sure that root and localhost have permission to use the database.
I use NaviCat and SQLyog to import data, create indexes, etc. and to confirm the database is accessable.
I modified my searches a lot. These 2 progs make it easy to debug and make up fro my lack of SQL knowlwdge. I search close to a million items so lots of debugging is needed :-)

Are you working on same machine as your mySQL data? I.e. is it truly localhost? You might also try 127.0.0.1 instead. How much direct access do you have to the IIS server. What I mean is do you have direct access and control or are you working with a hosting service?

Do you have the MYSQL drivers installed?
They can be downloaded at:

Just worked for me.
