    Alternative to SELECT 1 to check MariaDB Server online status ( using DO 1 generates an error )

    Chriss, For now, I will use your suggestion: SQLEXEC(h,'Do @dummy=0') I get your point regarding having empty non-queries. I just hate the idea of having to programmatically erase/delete the resulting returning cursor each and every time my system queries this. I use this in a timer event...

    Alternative to SELECT 1 to check MariaDB Server online status ( using DO 1 generates an error )

    Hi, Pardon my ignorance, but how do you execute a comment sir? I tried this first in Workbench, but no response or feedback. Thanks.

    Alternative to SELECT 1 to check MariaDB Server online status ( using DO 1 generates an error )

    Hi Guys, With MySQL, I use "DO 1" to check for the server's online status. Works like a charm. But MySQL 8.x has caused me so much pain by way of unknown errors I cannot seem to understand and correct. So, I tried MariaDb, installed the latest GA todate, 11.7.2 and used the latest ODBC 3.2.5...

    Latest VFP Version

    Thank you sir. By the way, have you tried out that VFP "Advance", aka VFP 10? Should we?

    Latest VFP Version

    Yep, 2024. Very unlikely of Micro$oft to give us a new patch for VFP. :rolleyes: Please do sir. Keep us posted. Thanks in advance!

    Latest VFP Version

    Hi Guys, This is the version of Visual Foxpro I have been using for the longest time: Visual FoxPro 09.00.0000.7423 for Windows Is this still the the latest? The reason I am asking this is because I came across this link from Microsoft...

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    Hi Guys, Am so glad that after installation of the latest stable release of MariaDB server (11.4.5) and ODBC (3.2.5), albeit with some booboos along the way, it has so far been a generally smooth transition. My apps have run so much snappier. Am keeping my fingers (and toes as well) crossed...

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    Chriss, That is a bad habit of mine. Coz it has been working for the longest time, that's why I immediately "rule them out" since they never were a problem maker for me. Anyways, thanks be to our Lord, and thank you Chriss. Cheers!

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    Hi Chriss, I found the darn culprit! The real reason of not being able to connect was because of my Connection Manager class! In my Connected() method, which returns .T. or .F., the code is as follows: RETURN ( This.DataSource > 0 ) AND ( SQLEXEC( This.DataSource, "DO 1" ) > 0 ) It appears...

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    How come you didn't need skip-ssl setting? The screenshot has same contents are the results in the remote laptop. I am now in the test computer running MariaDB.

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    Am so sorry Chriss. What I meant was that -- I omitted the database. My brain cells must be fried. And... GUESS WHAT?! I added "skip-ssl=1" to the connection string like so: lnConn = SQLSTRINGCONNECT( "DRIVER={MariaDB ODBC 3.2...

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    Hi Chriss, I tried connecting using an omitted server. Still no luck. But, when I change {MariaDB ODBC 3.2 Driver} to {MySQL ODBC 8.0 Unicode Driver}, it connects. I reinstalled the test PC with Windows 10 LTSC Evaluation, thinking it may be because of Win 11. Same undesired behaviour. You...

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    Chriss, Did you like tweak anything in MariaDB? More specifically, the file my.ini? Are you running on Windows 10 or 11? Thanks.

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    For now, the very obvious thing is, all thing being equal... same server, same settings.. why does the MySQL ODBC function work, while the MariaDB ODBC does not?

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    And to think that the PC (with 192.168.0.25), I just did a clean install of Windows 11 LTSC Evaluation. Then install MariaDB Server 11.4.5. Then the ODBC. It is so frustrating!

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    driver={MariaDB ODBC 3.2 Driver} server=127.0.0.1 port=1696 uid=root pwd=p@55w0rd database=richline Same unwanted result! Drats!

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    When I installed MySQL server, I already changed the port from 3306 to 1686 during the installation process. Never had any issues with Firewall. I did the same with MariaDB Server installation process.

    Correct Connection String VFP to MariaDB

    I did exactly as you have shown in the pictures. Only thing different is I change port 3306 to 1696. Of course, the password you supplied is different from what I put in. I used both root and appuser in my SQLSTRINGCONNECT() right in the local machine (192.168.0.25) where MariaDB is running...
