Hi

I am pretty sure other people are connecting to MySQL from 4D so i am hoping 
someone can advise me on where my problems may lie.

Pre-amble:—

I want to connect to the database of an Asterisk Telephone server. We have 
established that the database is accessible on the network and using 
‘sequel-pro’ i can connect from my Mac(Seqel-pro bypasses ODBC manager so its 
not that helpful in diagnosing my problem).

I have also been able to setup and test an ODBC connection using the ODBC 
manager on WIndows, as i was not having much luck getting a connection from 4D 
to the MySQL database on my mac i switched my efforts to there.


After some flapping around I established that the my-sql connector we had did 
not match the my-sql server which is running 3.5x. Later drivers on the pc 
would not connect but the 3.5 driver does connect to the MySQL database From 
Windows(as you know the odbc administrator on PC

The problem in a nutshel:—


However when i try to get my 4D app to to perform a login i get a stack 
overflow problem from 4D V17.(recursive errors eventually returning control to 
me!).

Does anyone know if 4D is able to connect to a MySQL server running version 3x? 

Should I be doing something else other that SQL 
LOGIN(ODBC:xx.xx.xx.xx;username;password) for a MySQL server?
