Problems with MySQL Connector/ODBC 5.00.10 Beta 2006-12-13 - By Paolo
Back Hello!
This beta seems to be a big improvement over the previous one. I have tried connecting to a multilingual MySQL 5 database (InnoDB) using MS Access 2003.
Firstly, Windows does not give an error when creating the data source (bugfix as advertised). And secondly, when looking at a linked table in Access, I now see UFT-8 (See http://UFT-8.ora-code.com) text properly: Russian, Korean, etc., and not s string of question marks as before.
But there are hitches:
1 - the connector sees not only the tables but also the Views in the MySQL database. If in Access to click "Select All" to link all the tables, it tries to link to the views as well and fails with an error ("Reserved error (-7729); there is on message for this error.")
2 - some rows in a multilingual table, for no apparent reason have "#Error" marked for all their values. These rows are quite usable by other programmes (Navicat, for example).
3 - if I leave this table open in Access, then every minute or so, a pop-up appears: "Reserved error (-7776); there is on message for this error." And after a certain time (a few minutes), the MySQL database (also running on Windows) crashes.
1 is just an annoyance. 2 & 3 render the connector unusable.
