I've set up a System DSN to the MySQL database and the connection is okay when I test it. When I set up a linked server using that DSN it connects and I can see the catalog and tables but when I try to query it, I get an error that says "contains no columns that can be selected or the current user does not have permissions on that object". When I use the same settings to connect through MySQL Workbench it works and I can query the data. Any ideas?
Thanks.
Make sure that the service account has permissions.

I am having issue connecting to mysql in excel macro. I can pull the data manually but not from vba code.
Pease find snap shot of error and connection properties. Previously, it was working fine when connecting to MSSQL Db.
Thanks.
Error 1004

Please check if any firewall blocks the standard MySQL port (3306). Does your MySQL user has the permission to connect to the database from remote machine?
Let me know
You can use this module to connect VBA to MYSQL
I have the following information to a SQL database
Server : MyUserName.mysql.db
User : MyUserName
Password : MyPassWord
I am a little noob in this context, so I have some questions:
How to know where is hosted my database? Is it in mysql domain? (Isn't that the type of database?)
How can I access it and visualize it?
To begin with, you need a CLIENT to be able to access your database. For MySQL, you can use either Workbench or MySQL CLIENT (the last giving you command-line level access).
Second, and according to your information, the server is MyUserName.mysql.db so if you try to PING that server you should get some response.
Third, MySQL has a default port number so you need to configure your client to access that server though that port (if I'm not mistaking, 3306).
You will also need access credentials to your database.
Your DB administrator should be able to provide all the information you need.
Contact your database administrator.
If you're trying to acess/visualize sql server database on your local computer install ssms to connect to your local database , similarly you can access any other database through ssms.
I am trying to connect mysql database in phpmyadmin to the access file. I am using mysqlconnector ODBC for that. Tutorial I am following is this
The problem is that when I give the credentials to connect to database, it gives me error as shown in this snapshot
I have tried hard to search on internet but failed. What mistake I am doing. I am putting the ftp information of the server there. Is there any database credentials i need to put?
You can't use the FTP credentials to connect the MySQL database. You have to use the database credentials. Make sure you have done followings before connecting.
Make sure MySQL server is up and running on the HOST IP and PORT.
Your MySQL server can accept connections from your IP or use % for
all IPS
Make sure you have a valid USER account
EDIT
Or tell us where(local server, internet, IP) the MySQL database is installed. The port number the server is listening on. How you access MySQL server normally.
I am trying to connect to MySql db using VS2010. I added my ip address in cpanel allow hosts. I also grabbed the IP address for the server where the database is hosted which is just my website.
So I go to server explorer, right click database connections and clicked on add a connection
I select .NET Framework Data Provider for MySQL for Data Source
for Sever Name I typed the IP address for my website where the Database is
Typed in the user name and password who has all the privileges, and entered the Database Name too.
When I hit test connection I always getting "Unable to connect to any of the specified hosts"
any advice is appreciated
Thanks
So, in order to connect to a MySql database from VS2010 see the link bellow:

Have you tried adding % as your access host under Manage Remote MySQL Access of your Cpanel?
Try this
http://zambalestechrealm.wordpress.com/2012/03/08/vb-net-remote-access-to-mysql-database-of-my-website-2/
It says
Goto Your site Cpanel, and look for MySQL remote access, in my case i put % in the list of user to access remotely to my database. ‘%’ percent means to allow all connection to connect to my MySQL database.
I installed a company specific program which can connect to a SQL Server. I installed SQL Server 2008 Express with mixed authentication. I called the instance SQLExpress.
What I want to do is to create a new database via the program. (see image). In point 5 I tried many logins like sa-login, MyComputerName\User-Password, User-Pass, but nothing works. In point 6 I used for the server name SQLExpress or MyComputerName\SQLExpress and for the (new) database name I used MyDB, but same thing here. Can't connect.
It keeps saying:
cannot create database master.MyDB. SQL Server doesn't exist or access denied.
Can anyone help me please?

I figured it out.
I've created a user in SQL Server and added him to the "sysadmin"
role and gave him access to the "master" database.
After that I added an inbound rule (allow port 1433) to my Windows Firewall to allow remote connections to the SQL Server.
