Is MySQL 8 not working correctly with PowerServer 2019 or 2020?

I started testing MySQL and had serious problems. I downloaded the eval version of CData MySQL ODBC Driver. It seems to solve my problems but it is expensive so I don't think it will work for me.

Hi Sylvain;

   From the PS2020 beta documentation ...

Appeon PowerServer 2020 can connect to any of the following database servers:

  • SAP SQL Anywhere 16.0 or 17.0 with SQL Anywhere .NET Data Provider driver

  • SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) 12.5.x or 15.x with ASE native driver

  • IBM DB2 UDB 9.7 with IBM DB2 native driver

  • Informix 7.x, 8.x, 9.x, 10.x or 11.x with IBM Informix .NET Provider

  • Microsoft SQL Server 2012, 2014, 2016, 2017, or 2019 with MS SQL Server native driver

  • MySQL 5.5.x or 5.6.x with ADO.NET Data Provider driver

  • Oracle 11g or 12c with Oracle native driver

  • PostgreSQL 9.2 with PostgreSQL psqlODBC driver

 

  However, The PS 2020 documentation is still beta. I suspect that ASE 16.x and Oracle 18C/19C should be added to the above list as well.

I will check with engineering for you for a definitive answer.

Regards ... Chris

Hi Sylvain ... Update: Engineering is still hoping to add support for MySQL 8 and O18C/19C for PS 2020 GA but at this time, they are still working through some functionality issues with each of those releases.

I did some test with version 8 and PB back in September 2018, the problem I had at that time was for some reason PB or the ODBC  was looking for the table mysql.proc  when a store procedure was called but that table do not exist anymore in MySQL version 8.

That why I'm asking if any special work was done on the PB side to fix this or it has nothing to do with PB and I'm missing something...

 

TIA

Sylvain

Have you tried connecting using MySQL JDBC driver? I'm saying this, because we had problems connecting to a Tibero Database using ODBC. ODBC worked for some things but not all, especially when it came to stored procedure calls.

Tibero is not supported by Appeon so we used the jdbc driver and now everything works.

I haven't tried myself with MySQL so no guarantees.

I now see you also want to connect from powerserver. If it works for powerbuilder classic, it would probably not be a solution for PowerServer as most people setup powerserver for IIS and not for JBoss, Wildfly or similar.

The answer is simple... because we don’t have many PowerBuilder customers demanding this. You can’t use such ranking and assume the demand among PowerBuilder customers is the same.
