MySQL Data Source Not Showing Up In Visual Studio 2015 -
as title says, no matter mysql not appear in list of data sources in visual studio 2015.
i have done suggested in question: mysql data source not appearing in visual studio
i have installed development releases , different versions of connectors corresponding mysql vs drivers per table here: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/visual-studio/en/visual-studio-install.html
i have reinstalled visual studio itself.
all of no avail. can manually configure connection , run .net application reads , writes mysql visual studio refuses mysql in data source popup window.
short of moving database sql server not sure else can done here.
any suggestion or resolved great. i've been @ last 48 hours.
currently installed versions: mysql visual studio - 1.2.7, connector/net - 6.9.9
this .net 4.5.2 based project.
i have had same problem while back. unfortunately think answer case case, , can't remember fixed other playing around versions of mysql server , mysql connector/net versions.
i have vs 2015 tried recreate problem. unable installed mysql vs 1.2.7 , connector/net 6.9.9 , able see mysql database option in data sources window.
i recommend uninstalling both mysql vs , connector/net 6.9.9 , reinstalling them. make sure install mysql vs before connector/net documenation linked in question says "always install mysql visual studio before installing mysql connector/net."
you might try using mysql community server instead of mysql vs , using older version of connector/net.
update
try doing following:
- uninstall mysql vs , connector/net.
- install connector/net 6.9.9 doing custom installation. remove web providers feature installation , continue installation.
- install mysql vs 1.2.7 doing custom installation. make sure visual studio integration feature selected installation , finish installation (it should selected default).
update 2
if want more alternatives reinstalling:
try checking out machine.config file properties see if mysql data provider property similar mine going c:\windows\microsoft.net\framework\v2.0.50727\config
lines check:
- ltsadd name="mysql data provider" invariant="mysql.data.mysqlclient" description=".net framework data provider mysql" type="mysql.data.mysqlclient.mysqlclientfactory, mysql.data, version=6.9.9.0, culture=neutral, publickeytoken=xxxxxxxxx" /gts
also, maybe try creating website instead of project or vice versa. there multiple ways data source window. try creating ado.net object , adding connection see if data source window displays mysql data source. can create connection through server explorer window. follow these steps.
