MySQL


How do I connect to MySQL using Classic ASP?
Please use the following connection string on our Windows 2008 servers to connect to the local MySQL service:

"DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver}; SERVER=127.0.0.1;DATABASE=DBNAME;UID=USERNAME;PWD=PASSWORD;OPTION=3;"


Where:
DBNAME and USERNAME and PASSWORD are what you've already specified in the control panel under MySQL databases.
Tips:
Some customers have reported that they need to use a port number with the ODBC. So instead of 127.0.0.1, you would use 127.0.0.1,1433 or localhost,1433
