I think there used to be an "add_connection" menu provided by 
zope.app.rdb, and I imagine it had a purpose for ttw development.  It's 
gone as of Zope 3.2 (maybe earlier), so what has worked for me is 
commenting-out or removing the configuration in mysqldbda/configure.zcml:

<!-- Menu entry for "add connection" menu -->
<!--  <browser:menuItem
      menu="add_connection"
      for="zope.app.container.interfaces.IAdding"
      title="MySQL DA"
      description="A MySQL Database Adapter"
      action="AddMySQLdbDA"
      />-->


BTW, psycopgda has a similar configuration entry, and might need the 
same fix.
