It seems I celebrated too soon.....although this now succeeds:


~# ogrinfo mysql:testDB,user=root,password=mysql,port=3306 

...when I try to create an ovf file like so:

<OGRVRTDataSource>
    <OGRVRTLayer name="testLayer">
 
<SrcDataSource>mysql:testDB,user=root,password=mysql,port=3306,tables=testTa
ble</SrcDataSource>
        <SrcSQL>SELECT City, Latitude, Longitude FROM testTable</SrcSQL>
        <GeometryType>wkbPoint</GeometryType>
        <GeometryField encoding="PointFromColumns" x="Longitude"
y="Latitude"/>
    </OGRVRTLayer>
</OGRVRTDataSource>


I get the error "Unable to open datasource
'var/www/vhosts/mysite/httpdocs/OGR_test.ovf' with the following drivers."
This is followed by the list of drivers which includes MySQL.

Something wrong in my ovf file?

Hi,

Try first by removing the space characters after separating commas.

Aihe: [mapserver-users] Mapserver layer - MySQL connection

Hi all

Im using Mapserver 6.0 and I have GDAL  1.8.0 installed, running under
Ubuntu 10.04.  I am trying to make a connection from a layer to MySQL,
following the guidance given in the MySQL section of Mapserver
documentation. My problem is that when I try to connect using ogrinfo like:

~# ogrinfo mysql:testDB, user=root, password=mysql, port=3306

I get a mySQL connect failure message ERROR 1: MySQL connect failed for:
testDB, Access denied for userroot@localhost (using password: NO)

It seems that MySQL is refusing this connection request because the password
that I entered in the ogrinfo command is not being passed to MySQL and I
cant find a way to overcome this. The same user name and password work fine
if I access MySQL directly rather than via ogrinfo.

Does anyone have an idea what my problem is?



Chris
