Unable to Connect to MySQL database
- 7 years ago
I had the same problem with 8.0.17. I uninstalled it, and installed 8.0.16 from here: https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/mysql/Downloads/Connector-Net/ . Error went away.

Hi,
i have downloaded and installed 8.0.16, but still it shows 8.0.17 in start menu.
How do i check whether it is 8.0.16 in MySQL?
i belive folder name is 8.0.17 but it has changed.
please let me know if you have any suggestion or solution for it.

Hi Nagesh,
Try uninstalling all MySQL components (if you don´t you use MySQL), then just install that connector and give it another try. It should work. I recently swipe my hard drive with a Solid States and did the same process the it worked. Please let me know how it goes. Also I can help you thru Teamviewer.

I had a different error "call to SSPI failed". Installing version 8.0.16 of connector also solved my problem. Current version today is 8.0.28. Also, restarted my computer after reinstalling.

Can confirm, it doesn't work with 8.0.17 but does work with 8.0.16: https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/mysql/Downloads/Connector-Net/mysql-connector-net-8.0.16.msi (tested with PBIRS-January version, if that matters).
