Dear Vishal try to do following if you use LinuxOS in the console
ogrinfo --formats
Supported Formats:
ESRI Shapefile
MapInfo File
UK .NTF
SDTS
TIGER
S57
DGN
VRT
AVCBin
REC
Memory
CSV
GML
OGDI
MySQL
you will see the list of the supported formats.
If the MySql doesn't listed on the list you must reinstall ogr
application by using MySql support
I hope it will be help you.

Murat

Hello Everybody,
I am trying to use MapServer to read MySQL spatial data but it is unable to
open the database.
I tried to use ogrinfo MySQL:test user=mysql tablename -so
But it gave a message that unable to open with existing drivers,
I am working pretty fine with POSTGRES, DGN and DT2 layers
is it possible that i have missed out on some steps in installation of GDAL/OGR,
Also I tried to use ovf files but there too I faced the same problem,
Some of the examples of ovf file use
ODBC while others use MySQL
which one to follow, is it OK to use either,
Help?
Regards,
Vishal
