MySQL error

Postby nkillgore » Wed Jul 21, 2010 11:16 am

I'm getting the following error during KioWare Server Database Creation.

When I click create: An error occurred while creating a database connection. Details: ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified.

I can connect to the MySQL Database through other methods. I created a DSN and it tested fine. I am using the latest version of MySQL as of today. Also, I have all updates installed for .NET 3.5. I'm not really sure what the problem is. Everything except for kioware can connect to the MySQL database without any problems.

Please help.

This is a common question, and luckily the answer is very simple. You must install the MySQL ODBC 3.51 drivers. The version is important - it must be 3.51.

Installing the drivers should remedy the issue immediately, without even needing a reboot.
