Accessing MySQL Database Through 2010 Express

Sep 16, 2011

I am trying to follow this userguide url... to basically build an application that will allow users to connect to my database, from an exe file. I'll try to explain as best i can. The plan is, users will launch an exe file that i have built in Visual Basic(VB) 2010 Express. When they launch the application they will see a 'login screen'.I am following the example guide (see link above), and will customise it once i can connect to the database. For some reason whenever i connect to the database it gives me two errors, the first is if i use the 'debug' mode in VB to test the script (note it doesn't produce any build errors), the second is if i build the application and run it as my users would.

1)Error Connecting to Database:Access denied for user 'mike'@'92.**.**.***' (using password:YES)

2)Error Connecting to Database:Unable to access any of the specified MySQL hosts..The ip address starred out (*) is my local machine ip address.The server is the server in which my Database runs on. 'mike' is a listed user on my 'user' table, the password i use is the password assigned to this user on my table.

3)I've rebuilt the whole VB project, but still no joy, wern't expecting it to as there were no errors generated.

4) I've read, but don't really understand that it could be something to do with my database not being able to be controlled remotely, only locally. I started digging into 'Access Your MySQL Server Remotely Over SSH', didn't really know if i was going completely off the mark, it didn't mention needing to do any of this in the guide i've been following, but just a thought. It might be the case as i've tried to access my database through a programme called MySQL Administrator. I punch in the host,username etc and connect to my database, for some reason it won't allow me to add new users, could this be because i can't control my database remotely? Would this stop what i'm trying to do working?

5) When trying to install the MySQL.Data.dll file i had great difficulty in choosing one and finding it, adding it to my project using the 'Add reference' in VB. Finnally got it how it should be (i think), installed MySQL.Data.dll Ver 6.1.2.0 into my project.

May 31, 2009

I want to create and populate populste several databases on my server MySQL. I pretty much know how to handle the data and queries once I have a connection, it is connecting that I don't know how to do. I have read all the help file I can find till I am sick of reading about "Northwind" which doesn't help me a t all. What I need are the three or four lines that establish a connection to MySQL at [URL] I need to be able to establish this connection transparent to the user who needs only to put thier user name and password for the site into a configuration file. Then I need to be able to create a database and give the user access with thier username and password. I know how to create the database but not how to set the username, password and permission.

My problem is that I have a program which needs to access images for multiple choice questions, hundreds of them. Now when I publish the program it is not taking the images with it. I have read some information by 'kleinma' regarding publishing and he says to right click on the Bin and click include in project, but when I do this there is no command in the menu for this.

I have included all of my image files in the Bin and have also added them using the resource editor, but to no avail As I have indicated it is the Express edition, could this make a difference

MySQL And VB 2010 (.NET/Express)

Mar 8, 2011

I am trying to connect my application to my database that's hosted on my website through another host. I am using the System.Data.SqlClient Namespace, and I have tried about every connection string possible, and I either get a long delay (About 30 seconds) before the main form displays with a warning in the Console box or it just gives me the warning and loads fast. Either way, it's not connecting.

code:

The x's represent just a masking. The server value is the ip address of my website. Basically, I am wanting this app to connect to my database of my website and it will be used to compare login information as well as the status of the logged in account (blacklisted, active, or needs to be activated).

VB 2010 Express - Create A Simple Local Data File On PC Using Mysql

Jul 15, 2010

I have been reading about ADO, SQL, datasets, data adapters etc and have gone into information overload. My next step is to create a simple data file of my own that I can manipulate, update, sort etc in VB Express. Do I need another piece of software? I read about MySQL, which I understand is primarily used to access databases on the net, but can that be used to create a simple local data file on my PC? Can you simply hard code something in VB Express?

Add A Remote SQLServer Database To My Database Explorer Window In 2010 Express?

Feb 14, 2011

I'm trying to use LINQ to SQL in Visual Basic 2010 Express.

It allows me to create the .dbml file, but in order to drag items from the Database Explorer window to the design surface, I first have to get my database listed in the Database Explorer!(this is a remote SQL Server database - not a local .mdf)

I already have a good, working connection string to the remote SQL Server database, but that doesn't help me when I'm trying to generate the DBML at design time.

Can anyone tell me how to get my remote SQL Server database identified in the Database Explorere window? When I try the "Add Connection", I am limited to Access, SQL Server Compact, or SQL Server Database File. If I try to enter the IP address & port of my DB Host I get a 'database file does not exist' message. Doesn't seem to want to let me point to a remote DB server...

MySQL Database VB 2010 Queries?

Jun 18, 2012

I've written an application and I'm trying to utilise a database behind it. I've created a mysql database, and table which all appears to work correctly. I appear to have connected to the db correctly too. And hit a bit of a brick wall. As a side-note, within Visual studio connected to the database using the add data source wizard, I then dragged and dropped my db table's column onto my form that intends to display them all (6 textboxes, including primary key) and that now displays the first record of the table. It confused me, because i did this as soon as I had setup the database with no visual basic code assisting, so there wasn't even a connection string?!

One functionality i want to have is to press a button and cycle through the table's records using the form by the unique id, how would I do this? I'm essentially asking how can I enter a number in a textbox which would then return me the relevant primary key and data attached to that record.

VS 2010 - Database Connectivity With MySQL Server 2005

Dec 3, 2011

I am using Visual Studio 2010. I want to do database connectivity using VB.Net and MS SQL Server 2005. I know 1 way of doing this. Following are the steps...

1. Create a new Data Source Using Data Sources Window.
2. Select the appropriate view like details view/ data grid view for that data source
3. Drag that data source on your form and connectivity is done. Also all the controls are created by the visual studio.

This feature is really cool but I want to learn database connectivity by pure coding without using such advanced features. Also is it possible to do connectivity from a class library ?

.net - VB 2010 Express Form To Database?

Mar 14, 2011

I made an input form that I want to work like a daily diary. The user inputs a title, date, time, and the actual text entry. At the end is a button and I think I have to make a click "event" to make all the text from the input boxes get stored somewhere. I want each of these submissions to be separate for each day with the capability of showing the journal entry for each day later on.

I am a novice, but I think the data needs to go to a database. Cannot find any sample code to make the form data save to a database. The database I made is "a local database." Not sure if it needs to be "Dataset" or "Entity Data Model".

Please show me some code for this or a way to save information without a database only using vb code.
