Problem with MySQL on remote server

[Grzegorz Sawczuk]

Welcome,
I'm trying first time use in my project OpenAccess ORM Free Edition. Application is using MySql database. During development, I'm trying to use database placed on remote machine, but unfortunately after first attempt to fetch any data from db via OpenAccess, I see error message, which is attached below. When I switched to database placed on localhost (the same development machine), then everything works correctly. Based on description to OpenAccess ORM, free edition should support MySQL.
Do you have any suggestions or recommendation, how can I resolve this problem, and connect to remote database via ORM?

Regards,
Grzegorz

Hello Grzegorz Sawczuk,

 The OpenAccess free edition supports all free databases including the MySql community server. To detect whether the server is a commercial or free version we execute the following query against the mysql database - 'select @@version_comment' . We check for the 'community'  version comment in the returned value.
It seems that you have mysql installed on a linux machine and hence the version returned is - Gentoo Linux mysql-5.0.90-r2. This is treated as a commercial version of MySql and hence you get the exception.

Hope this clarifies things a bit.

Best wishes,
