hi david, MySQL expects a connection string like: db@server user password or, if you're accessing something on the same machine: db username password hope this helps jens Jens Vagelpohl Systems Administrator Washtenaw Development Council

I installed MySQL on Win NT it went smoothly thanks to Phip Harriss very clear How-To (http://zope.org:18200/Members/philh/mysql)
In the folder Im trying to use the Z MySQL Database Connection function to create a connection. It fails rejecting my connection string. The Zope server is named SERV3. Im using the UserName and Password that I use to log on to the server. (All of the conection string parameters refer to traits on the server, none refer to my remote client PC, right?)
Below are some unsuccessful connection strings.
Suggestions welcome!
Dave
MySQL@SERV3 UserName UserPW MySQL@localhost UserName UserPW db@SERV3 UserName UserPW MySQL localhost UserName UserPW Db SERV3 UserName UserPW Db 192.168.1.14 UserName UserPW
