Linux DSN Configuration - ODBC Driver for MySQL

Linux DSN Configuration

After the linux (DEB or RPM) driver is installed, a DSN with the name DEVART_MYSQL is created. You can use it to test the connection with the MYSQL server. For this, perform the following steps:

1. Open the odbc.ini file located in the /etc folder. Find the DEVART_MYSQL section and specify the required connection settings:

   
   
   User ID=<your MySQL User Name>
   Password=<your MySQL password>
   Server=<your MySQL server address>
   Port=<your MySQL Port>
   Database=<your MySQL database name>
   

2. Run the UnixODBC Test Command utility and test a connection using the following command:

   isql -v DEVART_MYSQL
