Error: nanodbc/nanodbc.cpp:1021: 00000: [ - mysql

Question

I have been trying to connect to my SQL that I am trying to create. I recently downloaded MySQL, the workbench, the connector ODBC, and the ODBC Manager, but I can't find the solution to solve the error for the connection.
Do I need to download anything else? I can't find a solution on internet or youtube for Mac.

Thank you

Presuming you're on Windows, try creating an ODBC connection using the most recent driver. The ODBC data sources tool should already be installed, you just need to open it and create a new one.
Press the windows key (or click the search spyglass) and type in "ODBC." The "ODBC Data Sources (64-bit)" tool should come up.
How to Create an ODBC Connection in Windows
Open the "ODBC Data Sources (64-bit)" application
Click "Add"
Choose"MySQL ODBC 8.0 Unicode Driver" (or whatever the newest version you
have is). If you don't have it, you can download it here:
https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/odbc/
Enter the following information:
Data source name (the example code below uses "my_odbc_connection"), TCP/IP Server, Port, User and Password
Click "Details" to expand the box.
In the "Connection" tab, you may need to check the "Enable Cleartext
Authentication" box. Could depend on your system configuratoin.
Click "Test" to test the connection. If everything went right you
should get "Connection Successful" message. If you aren't able to get a
successful connection, make sure that you have access and that your
connection information doesn't have any typos.
After making a successful connection, perform these 2 additional steps (the
drop-downs won't populate until you connect successfully):
Click the "Database" drop down to choose the default database that you'll
be writing data to. If you will be writing to more than 1 database
then you may need to create a separate connection for each database
that you'll be writing to, specifying the default database
differently for each one.
Click the "Character Set" drop down and choose utf8.
You should now able to use the "DBI" and "ODBC" packages to read, write, etc. any data directly from R. Specific settings listed above may or may not apply depending on situation.
See the example code below.
