MVC3, VB.NET, using EF. I am working on coding up a simple function to handle checking for a valid MySQL connection. If the connection fails the test it will use the secondary server connection. This is required because our hosting provider does not provide failover or redundant MySQL servers. The problem is I tried to use a simple try catch method in the HomeController. This fails early because the Entity Framework is looking the connection that was set up when I set it up... Is there anyway to control that connection dynamically?
View 1 RepliesI have some questions about mysql database; I have set up columns and rows on mysql database and I would like to make mysql connection for a test before I would release the project in the near future, but my doubts is that how would I be able to keep mysql admin username and password details secure in the project without anyone could find out??Secondly, I don't want anyone to crack my project to get the details, which it will put me and other clients at risks.

View 2 RepliesI am having a problem with a unit test I have created. First time doing this so I am not sure why I am getting this error [code]Test method ETDS_Unit_Tests.LoginTest.ValidateUserNameTest threw exception: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server).This is the same connection that my software is using, and the software runs fine, only the unit test is failing. What I am doing wrong? It Seems to fail one time for each datarow in the table.Also, I am using a Linq Query in the method that I being tested. I believe that this may be what is causing my error.

View 5 RepliesI've set up a test database to begin unit-testing an app that I've recently been added to. It is a 3-tier design (presentation layer, BOL and DAL) and this is my first time writing unit tests. I've decided to start at the BOL and I figure the best way is to swap out the ConnectionString (which has been passed along as a Shared String) with one that points to my new test database. However, I don't wish to change any production code. I simply wish to somehow redirect the app to the test database during unit tests.

I'm trying to make a rather simple Visual Basic app with which I can update some tables within my MySQL databases.I've been following this tutorial from page 3 on, as the first 2 pages where on how to initialize a local MySQL database.My MySQL database is on my website, so I thought I had to use the website's name instead of "localhost". Anyways, I now use this code:
Dim connection As MySqlConnection
connection = New MySqlConnection()
connection.ConnectionString = "Server=resload.com; Uid=***; Pwd=***; Database=***;"
[code]....
But it popups (don't now whether that's a real word :p) with the message:Error Connecting to Database: Access denied for user '***'@'my ipaddress' (using password: YES)?
how to create modules and consequently how to use them.I need to do a database in mySql from vb.net. I have tried the usual way, that is my connecting to the database at the beginning of each of my class. I want to know if that can be done through modules, as far as i have read about that or some other way like procedures and functions. In that way, it could ease my coding in not having to write the db connection each time.

I'm guessing the connection string is wrong, I'm going to try the server as localhost, but in the mean time hopefully someone might see what I might be doing wrong.I'd also like to look into doing it asynchronously, so the UI doesn't freeze,

I'm wondering if I create a program that connects to a mysql database, will they be able to decompile it and do anything with the mysql connection information?
View 18 RepliesWe have a VB6 program that uses an ADODB.Connection to establish a database connection and use its execute function to run SQL statements. The connection we have established is to a SQL Server. It has been working fine. Currently, I am trying to change the connection to a MySQL database. I changed the connection string and the connection is ok.
However, when it comes to running the execute function, it returns a runtime error 3246 - connection object cannot be explicitly closed while in a transaction.
I checked the connection.status before calling execute and found that it is open. When I use MySQL's server connections to check the status, I found that there was a connection before and after execute was called.
I encountered this same error whether I used MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver or MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver.
I am building a database application using MYSQL as the backend. The MYSQL instance will be installed remotely on a share host. I have access to SSL certificates. I'm obviously not looking for any code but, conceptually, how do I go about securing the connection using SSL between my application and the remote MYSQL database?
View 2 RepliesI have some software that grabs information from a mysql server. However, users minimize it to the system tray, and leave it idle for hours until using it again.If a user leaves the program idling for about 15 minutes, then goes into the program again to perform a query, it throws a Fatal Error in the mysql, and says 'connection must be valid and open'
The reason is simply because the mysql connection has timed out..I was wondering what the code would be to re-connect to the server IF it has timed out.
I am developing a chat application using online connection to a mysql databbase. But i am facing a problem. After 10 minutes, MySQL closes all the chat connections because of the 600 seconds timeout (has been set by the host service i am using). I don't understand why is that happening cause every piece of my code which needs data from the database opens and closes the connection (i mean that it dosn't maintain the connection after the query's execution). If i .close() and .dispose() the connection, it still appears in mysql at sleep mode (it terminates only if i exit the program).
